You should upgrade to VC10 as soon as possible (we've got a
"go live" Release Candidate that was just released).
I'll inform my management, but they make the decisions, not I.
You
should certainly be running VC9 SP1 now, in order to avoid the
HID/SCL bugs we've already fixed.
We're still using VC8, but just out of curiousity, how do you
determine the patch level of the compiler? If I just invoke cl
at the command line, I get:
Microsoft (R) 32-bit C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version
14.00.50727.762 for 80x86
Which doesn't even tell *me* it's VC8. (I assume it's VC8
because that's what my boss told me it was. Also, the path is
through c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8.) And I
don't even get to see this (or the command line) when I invoke
it from Visual Studios.
