Re: CommonC++ for Linux and Win32

[Robert Prouse]

Thor,

CommonC++ works best with Visual Studio under Win32, so you should have no 
problems.  There is a project file in the win32 directory.  Be aware though 
that most of the development is going on in the linux portion of the code, 
then is ported over to the win32, so features sometimes lag behind in the 
win32 code and the win32 port is sometimes broken.  If you are going to use 
it, you should subscribe to the various mailing lists to track the 
development and bugs.
