Re: [Log4cplus-devel] is msvc7 (.net) compiler supported ...

[Tad S. <tad...@mc...>]

I don't have access to the VC++ .NET compiler, so I've personally never 
tested it.  I've been told by others
that they've compiled previous releases of log4cplus with the .Net 
compiler.  This is the first release that I've
built log4cplus into a DLL.  (Again others have told me that they have 
built previous versions of log4cplus
as a DLL using the .Net compiler.)

I will definitely try to fix the errors for the new release Saturday.

Note:
There is a an "bug" in the Release build.  You should remove the 
"UNICODE" preprocessor definition in the
Release project if you are not using UNICODE.
