I,ve installed the Compiler and I can,t get even the simplest code to compile properely.
Anyone know where the fix for this bug is?
Or is it a limit of the demonstration version?
void main(void) { cout << "Hello world!"; }
FYI, at the start of the thread I was (as I admitted) not aware of the nuances.
Where did you admit to not knowing about the "nuances" between C and C++? As I read it, you expressed quite a lot of explicit irritation that you didn't got the "correct" answer.
Users with meaningful questions and reasonably polite behaviour do almost always get meaningful responses, and mostly in a polite way. The only irritating answers I use to see is a bit high percentage of bold-faced Please read the manual, which I think is too hard an initial answer and better reserved for repeat offenders. But people do get reasonable answers. If they expand their queries with more followup information, the answers are expanded to be more precise.
If a poster breaks his back to rub everyone backwards and complaining about stupid answers - because the answer wasn't the expected - then threads do go down the drain. You really entered this thread narrowminded and with a huge amount of attitude. Are you surprised at the outcome?
"Where did you admit to not knowing about the "nuances" between C and C++?"
He did finally admit it - Posted 20-Jun-2007 01:28: "At the start I didn't realise about the precise differences in product capabilities."
But that was after 2 days and several dozen posts of vehemently refusing to hear it!
Even now, he still doesn't seem to have grasped that the difference lies in the fact that C and C++ are different languages - it's not just a matter of "precise differences in product capabilities"!!
