question about compiling last trunk version

Post by AReichl »

I put this question here because i would not know where to put it else.

The trunk version 5175 did compile with Visual Studio but NOT with gcc.
We now have version 5176 which addresses this issue by adding missing
include headers.

Maybe i am confused because i ran out of coffee yesterday, but WHY did
it compile with Visual Studio then?

I don't know why it works in VS too (it looks like a VS auto include required headers in some cases). In last few days I didn't have working Linux on my PC, thats why I tested code only in VS and it was bad idea - a lots of buggy commits. Yesterday I installed Ubuntu, so I'll be able to check upcoming commits with other compilers too (I don't want to install MinGW etc. on Windows).

How can you live without MinGW on Windows?!? Ah well, maybe you are cygwin guy... ;-)

On Windows I use VS and it's enough in a lot of cases :P On the other hand I use Linux really often, where most of the time I use clang as compiler (except in situations like in 2 last weeks, when I didn't have any working Linux on my PC).
