Of late I'm facing the issues that points finger to VC6 compiler. Few of them are: A function-try-block doesn't work. Related Q in-class constant doesn't work. __FUNCTION_ (Macro to get function name) doesn't work The latest addition is it doesn't allow void functions to be passed as part of for_each. The below example is not compiling with VC6 compiler. It says "error C2562: '()' : 'void' function returning a value". It looks like VC6 doesn't like void functions to be passed to for_each. class Temp { public: Temp(int i):m_ii(i) {} int getI() const { return m_ii; } void printWithVoid() { cout<< "i = "<<m_ii<<endl; } bool printWithBool() { cout<< "i = "<<m_ii<<endl; return true; } private: int m_ii; }; int main(void) { std::vector<Temp> arrTempObjects; arrTempObjects.push_back(Temp(0)); arrTempObjects.push_back(Temp(2)); //Doesnot work, compiler error std::for_each(arrTempObjects.begin(), arrTempObjects.end(), std::mem_fun_ref(&Temp::printWithVoid)); //Works std::for_each(arrTempObjects.begin(), arrTempObjects.end(), std::mem_fun_ref(&Temp::printWithBool)); return 0; } Have you faced any other issues related to VC6.0. Any workaround to resolve these issues ? Or is it time to change the compiler?
