A word of caution to those who are committing C/C++ code. There are unique features of Microsoft C/C++ that will cause a build failure on Linux and vice versa. For example, gcc expects that the end of a C/C++ file is a blank line. Microsoft does not.
To reduce svn HEAD problems, it would be great if committers can test all commits on at least some windows box and some linux box. On 10/9/06, Pavel Ozhdikhin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Since we have the problem with diversity of the hardware the committers own the following procedure might be reasonable: - If the commit does not depend on platform/OS, for example, a patch to some OS-independent Java API, he checks it only Windows with definite configuration. - If the commit may depend on the platform, for example, a patch to the system-dependent native code, he checks it on Windows with definite configuration and ask another committer to check it on other system. > > Thanks, > Mikhail > Thanks, Pavel -- Weldon Washburn Intel Middleware Products Division
