I'm developing a DOS program with djgpp (2.01, I think -- the current
one downloaded about 2 weeks ago).  I am very satisfied so far
with the success to date.  However, my NT machine is bigger, faster,
better connected, etc.  If there was a C++ compiler for Win32 that would 
compile the exact same dialect of C++ as djgpp, I would like to have the
same code getting developed under/for Win32 and put into djgpp just
once in a while.  I have not had any success compiling the code that
works under djgpp with MS VC 5.0, mingw32, or Borland.  There seem to
be library differences, header file differences, etc.   There is no UI, 
graphics, or other machine-dependent stuff in my code.  Just IO
streams,  
<string>, <map>, <stack>, etc.  


I consider it possible that the problems are related to having include 
search paths mucked up somewhere, particularly with mingw32 and the
several versions of libraries available for it. 

TIA for any advice on the likelihood that the exact same code can make
under djgpp and real Win32 and how.
