[gecode-users] Which version of MSVC on Windows?

[Christian Schulte]

Hi,

After Alin had provided me with a patch I added that to the trunk (not
promising that Gecode will compile with MSVC 2005 in the future though).

FYI: the patch is attached.

I failed to notice that I have MSVC 2005 with SP1 and this is why I can
compile
the code.

Sorry for making such a fuss about it...
