need to support VC 7.1 #60

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

It would be nice (and doesn't seem too hard) to support Visual C++ 7.1,
which is still widely used.

At least initially, we don't need to support compiling with exceptions
disabled, as VC's STL has various problems in this mode.  Supporting VC 7.1
with exceptions enabled shouldn't be too hard.

We should fix the VC projects to work with VC 7.1 too.

Changing priority to low as we don't have an immediate need for it.  We can 
bump up
the priority when more users want it.

We've decided to not actively pursue supporting VC 7.l.  The code currently 
works
with VC 7.1 actually, but we don't want to regularly test for it.  If someone 
finds
the code broken for VC 7.1, he's welcome to submit a patch.
