Re: Windows build

From what I know Edin uses VC++ 6.0 which works just fine for our needs. So, I see no reason to move away from that unless someone can present a really good reason why it should be done. On 6-Jan-07, at 2:48 PM, Marcus Boerger wrote:

Hello Ilia, weel 2002 aka 7.0 or 2003 aka 7.1 are pretty fine. We have left behind 6.0 long ago :-) best regards marcus Saturday, January 6, 2007, 5:44:55 AM, you wrote:

Edin,

Thanks for the detailed analysis and spending time analyzing the issue. Based on what you've said I think our best option is to go back to VC++ 6.0 for this release, we are too far along in the release cycle to experiment with things. Perhaps for the next release we can revisit the issue, assuming there an interest and a benefit of using VC++ 8.0 can be quantified.

I looked around at other projects and everyone seems to be using VC++ 6.0 for their builds (Active state, apache, ...) which eliminates all the hassle with bundling C runtime, etc. So I think the best thing for us would be to stick to the good old C compiler for making the Windows distro.
