And C99?
- koenigdavidmj 11y agoYou know that's never going to happen. However, the parts necessary for C++ are implemented. To quote the article, this is what is missing: "Our C99 Standard Library implementation is complete, except for tgmath.h (which is irrelevant in C++) and the CX_LIMITED_RANGE/FP_CONTRACT pragma macros." That, and some preprocessor incompatibilities.
- pjmlp 11y agoMicrosoft already stated multiple times they are only doing what is required by the C++ standard and relevant customers.

I'm content with the 2013 additions, but I simply do not understand why c99 wasn't fully supported 10 years ago, much less in the latest VS edition. C++ is better in many ways but when you need to compile C specific code, it is incredibly frustrating.
- jlarocco 11y agoMicrosoft have said a few times that they make a C++ compiler and that some C99 features will never be implemented unless they have to do it for C++. It's frustrating, but not likely to change.
- justin66 11y ago> I simply do not understand why c99 wasn't fully supported 10 years ago, much less in the latest VS edition MSFT doesn't need it and 99% of the compiler's users do not need it. I'm not happy about it but I can understand why it's not a priority for them.
