Public GO and Re: Fastest C++ Compiler?

["Weimin Xiao" <ranxiao@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As far as I knew, different C++ compilers do not share OBJ file. They do
share DLL because it is standard on PC platform. They could share LIB file
but seems not many people like it on PC.

If you do not deal with MFC, I would think that Visual C++ (5.0) has the
best environment. From VC++'s class and function browser (and icons), you
can easily locate classes, functions, variables, and function calling tree.
If you think somewhat percent speed increasing is more important than your
programming time, I would suggest you upgrade your PC with a faster CPU.

If you do deal with MFC but only for GUI and communication objects (not for
collection type objects), I would think Borland C++ Builder (3.0) is the
best. Too sad that Borland droped its name. BCB does not have a program
browser, so it is not a good choice to develope complicated project such as
GO program.

If people in this mailing list were writting DLLs for their GO objects, I
would believe that we would already have a very good Public GO program on
PC. We would be able to share each other's success without touch each
other's secret.
