Regretfully, MS is the most popular compiler on Windows. In
my opinion, we have to support it if we want to support PCs.
Cygwin is nice, but most people don't use it.
<p>Just my 2-cents.

<p>Wow, that's amazing. Templated member functions are pretty basic.
<p>I have brought this up before, and have been soundly rebuffed, but have
we considered supporting some other compiler that
<br>runs on Wndows instead of the MS compiler?
<p>Hypothetically, how bad would the MS compiler have to be for us not
to support it? Suppose it only compiled C programs,
<br>would we just write everything in C and continue to "support" the MS
compiler?
<p>If MS is *not* planning on fixing these kinds of things anyway, then
why we should we tie ourselves to such a compiler?
<p>I suspect that the typical "market" for this toolkit will be sophisticated
enough to install another compiler if they have
<br>to. Don't you think so?
