Try running all the Boost PP tests <g>. I would be very surprised if they worked in -fno-ms-compatibility mode. I will try it myself with clang targeting VC++ using clang-win.
Even if all the PP tests don't pass, if what MPL needs works, that would at least solve Paul's immediate problem. (And not only his, I suppose.)
My current needs are indeed quite simple (and might be circumnavigated by removing use of float_distance.hpp (thus next.hpp) checking the generation of some simple numerical code. So I'll give that all a try. I remain still confused as to what controls the choice of clang-linux and clang-win, and what needs to switched. Perhaps trying to use some of the features in https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/2015/12/04/clang-with-microsoft-code... will enlighten me. With the compatibility mode on, and providing an include to the MSVC cstddef, I still get references to clang-linux. So does this mean that I am/should be using mingw cstddef and libstd++ for STL? I'm very grateful for the all thought and work going into this meanwhile. Does all this mean that I would be better off getting the very newest VS update? (A task that I need to do anyway sometime). Thanks Paul
