Use a well defined language, where the compiler > catches such problems... > Gautier Your response raises a couple of questions. 1. I don't see how this can be a compiler problem when we are talking about compatability of separately compiled modules. How can the compiler do anything about a programmer who does things the same way in more than one module? I know that this is rare, but this is the first time I've actually seen it be considered either illegal, or so rare that it's not to worry that it's impossible. 2. I'm not talking about anything contrary to the latest standard for C++, am I? Are you innuendoing that the greatest minds of the C++ world just spent 27 years coming up with something that's not 'well-defined'? Al
