RE: [Dev-C++] A question of professionalism

Microsoft Visual C++ 100% compliant with the ANSI C 1989-90 standard. But it
is not compliant with the ANSI C++ 1998 standard. So it is OK to learn ANSI
C 89 there. What are you learning, C or C++?

Again,

The input regarding using various compilers and development tools is noted
and will be used in the future.  However, myself and other students in the
class are faced with a situation where we have to defend ourselves after the
fact (semester over).  There are a myriad of different reasons this guy has
given 90% of the class an F (the other 10% got a D), and I simply want to
document all possibilities before going in front of a review board.

Please, anyone with links or other resources regarding the GCC, MinGW and
Cygwin compilers used by DEV C++, please let me know.  I will be doing my
own websearches, but just thought maybe you all might know of some
resources.  Thanks so much for all your input.

S.
