Should the C++ sourcefile extension be changed?

2000-09-12 Thread Morten Eriksen

Hello, Morten! So, as the current extension (.cc) _really_ confuses MSVisualC++, it'd be nice if the patch below is applied before releasing v2.50. I remember hearing about the problem that M$VC and some Macintosh C++ compiler don't support _any_ common C++ extention by default. Indeed,
