Hi Olaf, Thanks for the feedback. I did not know that C++11 features in VS2010 were buggy. My main concern is to use the most convenient features of C++11 (mainly: "auto", range-based for-loops, lambdas, smart-pointers, unordered-maps) to ease coding. It is so easy to use "auto", sometimes I loose myself and do not realize that I use it even in glsl-shader codes until I get shader-compiler errors :)
I see your point: I will dig deeper into this issue and most probably end up sticking to your advice.
