Perhaps you are compiling with -w (turn off warnings)?

You're right, they should, according to the standard.  But most compilers
issue warnings, not errors (including gcc-2.95.3, and Borland C++ 5.5.1
free, two of the most ISO C++ compliant compilers).  I tested with ANSI
enforcing option on all three (the two above and DigitalMars C++ 8.25), but
all I got was warnings...

Maybe the idea that old C++ code doesn't stop compiling, but this shouln't
happen in ANSI mode, IMHO.

Walter,

Good work and thanks for the 16-bit bug fixes.

A suggestion, could you indicate in your announcements what portion of the DM
toolset is affected by a new release.  I'm not always clear whether the version
number applies to the whole toolset as a group, or just the 
compiler, or just the compiler and linker.

Maybe the best thing would be a list of files (*.exe, *.dll, *.c, *.h, ...)
that are affected by a new release.  The "What's New in Version X.Y.Z" page is
close, but it doesn't enumerate the files or indicate which download 
package is indicated for users trying to keep up with your latest official
releases.

These are very minor critiques.  You are doing great work and I thank you. 
It's so great that you should develop a legal will for rights to the DM source
code should you ever perish before it goes open source.

Kind regards,

Mark
