Re: Visual C++ support of C99 by using "C++ mode" (/TP)

To what extent does
Microsoft Visual C++
also called: VC++
also called: Microsoft (R) 32-bit C/C++ Optimizing Compiler

support C99?

Because Visual C supports C90, it has de facto support for most of C99
(because most of C99 is basically C90), but it makes no claims of C99
conformance. Neither has Microsoft expressed the slightest interest in
supporting C99 until a significant proportion of their customers
requires it (which doesn't seem to be about to happen any time soon).
