Isn't msvc 6.0 the only msvc C++ compiler which works on Windoz/CE ? Robert Ramey Bo Persson wrote:

My Visual Studio 6 requires the trigonometry functions sin, cos, etc. to be prefixed with ::
The quaternion lib also uses features such as template template parameters that aren't supported by VC6, sorry, but I think you're on to a looser trying to use that lib with that (very old, and very broken) compiler.
Not only is 6.0 very old and very broken, the new (VC++ 2005, aka 8.0) Express Edition is free. That include both the compiler itself and the IDE. That is for the full optimizing compiler, not a stripped down version.
What are the system requirements for VC++ 6.0 and 8.0? If VC8 can run on all the systems that VC6 can, maybe we should add a FAQ telling all VC6 users to upgrade. (Or, if VC8 does have higher requirements, suggest that any VC6 user should upgrade if possible.)
I don't think the hardware requirements are a problem. Formally 600 MHz, 192 MB RAM, 500 MB harddisk.

However, VC8.0 does require that you have the latest upgrade of a currently supported operating system. That might be limiting, for some people at least.
