http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/vctoolkit2003/ Right now the server is being hit hard so don't expect to be able to download it soon. EDIT: BTW, if you have the Visual C++ 6.0 IDE already I discovered you can "upgrade" by copying the files from the \lib and \bin directories. Using the IDE interface is much easier than creating batch files. I haven't noticed any errors yet... other than the new libaries being total bloat boats with some of my test benchmarks now running a good 30% slower. :shock: [This message has been edited by Gump (edited April 18, 2004).] |

Wow! What's the catch??? Ok, I think I see one: it's the command line compiler with no IDE? Still, beggars can't be choosers  But thanks for the linkage! |

It actually might be handy. Apparently there are a couple of freeware IDE's you can use with it anyway. |
