Sure. Because the language handled by 2.95.3 is not C++ as defined by the Standard; streams, templates, and a lot of other things. If you want speed, switch to C. If you want C++, leave 2.95; if you want C++ with faster executables and some compiler slowdown, switch to 3.4.6; if you want a fast compiler and a fast executable, switch to 4.1.0 . -- Maurizio Loreti http://www.pd.infn.it/~loreti/mlo.html Dept. of Physics, Univ. of Padova, Italy ROT13: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ help-gplusplus mailing list help-gplusplus@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gplusplus
