Re: [Flightgear-devel] Seneca questions
There are 2 little things I moticied in the Seneca, I don't know if these are intentional : Nope - they are bugs! -- the ki525a knobs do not light at night with the other instruments. Is it like this in real ? It makes it difficult to dial a heading/obs at night. Fixed. -- whatever I set MKR/Mute and sensitivity on the gma340, beacon marker lights never light. I never hear them either. Did I miss something ? Well - you simply never can hear light ;-) Fixed, too. The definition for the marker-beacon instrument was missing in the instrumentation configuration. The sensitivity is still a noop, because changing sensitivity is not (yet) supported in the current implementation of marker_beacon.cxx. Thanks for pointing these out.

Unrelated issues, and what Curtis said : a bit of perspective, gcc is NOT 100% compliant either. The issue has to do with standards compliance and C++ idioms, not MS business strategy Funny how any sense of perspective is thrown out the window with the opportunity to rag on MS... Sheesh !! P.S : if warnings prevented building, no one would be flying today or tomorrow :) yeah, you're talking about backwards compatibility but obviously don't have a clue : you can use old standard unsafe versions of the routines if you want to, program will run fine on all versions of windows...
