This happens with MSVC 10.0 and 11.0. Hasn't "not" been an alternate symbol for "!" since C++98? I'll change it to "!", but that doesn't excuse not fixing it for 15 years! What happened? (I think some of the MSVC authors lurk here.)
I am curious as to the technical reason to use 'not' rather than '!'.
"not " sticks out more while perusing code than a pixel-wide symbol adjacent to an identifier. Daryle W.
