Hi,

currently I know of these Compilers working for the OpenOffice.org windows build:

* Microsoft Visual Studio .Net 2003 --- this is the current default compiler used for distributing the OpenOffice.org Windows build, it's a commercial version, you have to pay for.

* Microsoft Visual Studio 8 aka .Net 2005 --- there is also the Express version which is available as a "free" version. This compiler is supported by quite some time now as an supported compiler within the OOo build environment.

There are also the Windows (Platform SDK's, also available as free download)

* v5.0 ( just SDK header and Libraries)

* v6.0 comes additionally with the C/C++ Compiler 14.00.50727 for x86

* v6.1 comes addtionally with the C/C++ Compiler 15.00.20706 for x86, this one is the compiler also available with Visual Studio 9.0 Beta.

As for some feature for Windows Vista at least the SDK v6.0 is rquired, I would like to propose:

- after the creation of the OOH680 code line for 2.4 release, we switch from 2003 to 2005 Compiler as default for the Developer Snapshots on the SRC680 code line. If that seems to be feasible, drop the support of the 2003 Compiler after 3.0 release.

- Stephan Bergmann is currently looking on the WaE (warning are errors) behavior of the 2005 compiler, but I expect that we also will get a "go" from him soon,
