Most compilers that support variable sized arrays define those in terms of alloca. So someone who was MSVC will have to confirm that alloca works with MSVC first. Also on Microsoft's page for the C RunTime library reference for VS.NET, they state at the end of the first section (on this page http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/abx4dbyh(VS.80).aspx ): "This version of Visual C++ is not conformant with the C99 standard." It seems that Microsoft is almost not working at their C-compiler any more. So I'm wondering should we support a compiler that isn't supported by their developers anymore? -- Giel
ofcourse we should,many users including myself uses MSVC to compile,and I couldnt recall any free software I have used doesnt support MSVC project/compiler
