Use NT only if you have to or are coerced into doing so. I can't believe your instructor would mandate such stringent requirements. That is a bunch of baloney. Thanks A Bunch!

X-Mailer: Pegasus Mail for Windows (v2.54) Sender: owner-gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com Hi! I'm a new C++ student, and I'd rather not use a commercial compiler at this point, since I'm poor. :) I'm interested in Cygnus-win32, but I have some questions. First, will the compiler balk if I remove the .h from all the header files? (the prof likes it this way, since it's the new VC++ standard), and secondly, will the line 'using namespace std;' compile cleanly, in this compiler? I'm not even entirely sure what this line is for, but it's in every example in the book, and VC++5 compiles it beautifully, but VC++ 4 doesn't, nor does djgpp. I find that if I leave out that line and say instead of just

, it compiles fine, but the prof doesn't like it. I'd appreciate any help! ~Misty - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help". - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
