Argh! gcc does not enable by default -Wunreachable-code! Time to remember to write that down... Flameeyes — 9 months ago

With all due respect, Glib developers' idea of just allowing inclusion of <glib.h> is totally crazy. It's also going against what glibc and gcc have been doing with the most recent releases (reducing the size of headers included)... Flameeyes — 9 months ago

GCC, what else?

  by TheAlienist

If you need to compile C/C++ then save yourself some headaches AND money. Skip the commerical compilers and use GCC. The amount of R&D on this project surpasses that of the commercial alternatives (yeah, including Microsoft C/C++ Compiler).

Essential software

    by sureshkrshukla

Good quality, stable and rocking. I use it on daily basis.

Would get my 5 if error checking and mistake-proofing were enhanced. Also support on windows is not that good.
