The results of the poll are as follows
1 Digital C++ V6.1 // [1]
1 Sun CC 6.0 // [1]
1 g++ 2.7.3 // [2]
2 2.8.1
5 2.91.66+
19 2.95.2+
6 2.96+
2 .rpm RedHat
2 .rpm SuSE
1 .rpm unspecified
1 unspecified but "willing to upgrade"
I hope that I did not miss anybodys reply. If someone uses several
compilers for the same architecture, I counted the "best", on different
architectures everything got counted.
[1] I don't know whether these compilers can use namespaces, so maybe
someone could enlighten me.
[2] This is a hand tuned production machine but possibly "fixable" with
precompiled binaries.
This means we have 80% using 2.95.2 (or better) and 92% using 2.91.66 (or
better) on the g++ side. I'll try to find out how the 2.8.1 people are
doing. If they could upgrade I don't see any real obstacle to require at
least 2.91.66.
