    I beg to differ:

    #include <stdio.h>

    int main(int argc, char **argv)
    {
        printf("Hello World!\n");
        return 0;
    }

    ;P

    for all i know about C(++), but that code fails if stdio.h isn't available, due to it not being there, or even a hardware failure ;P (my hard drive with my test copy of Vista on it blew up a while ago) maybe we should say that any purposeful program will never work given certain operating conditions...? or maybe i'm getting miles off track.

      No, it won't fail, the compiler will fail and therefore you can't have released it if you havn't compiled it.

      Then that's not this program which has the bug, did the bug cause the crash?

      Aww come on, you're saying that Hello World! doesn't have a purpose.  Why's it been used for the last 20+ years as the first piece of code in almost every single book ever published on programming. :rolleyes:

          I just saw this one: http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,2072587,00.asp[^] I sure hope they've made C++ tolerable to code in.

              In other words, they might finally fix the issues that plague me to this day, and that they told me were features when I reported them prior to release ?

              I hope for your sake they fix your problems. They sure haven't fixed mine. I got my hands on one of their fixes for VS2005 a couple of months ago from a friend who had another friend working for MS. Since then, I have started having IDE issues. No surprise, but the fix made it worse! Microsoft has a fix for this NEW problem with my IDE, but they aren't releasing it. I have access to the HotFix Beta site (or whatever they call it) for VS2005, but this fix isn't there. :wtf: You have to CALL Microsoft (or email them) to get this fix. The part that frustrates me is that I am using my MSDN license (not for production) and they don't consider that eligible for this particular hotfix. KB926405. I can't find it anywhere and have tried everything I can. I thought maybe it was just my license and had another developer with MSDN Universal (don't remember what they renamed it to!) try to get the patch with the same luck. If I still worked for the last company, at least I might be able to get my hands on the fix!

                [evaporates from shame] with "Hello World", in Scotland there's a temptation to use "See you, Jimmy!" i'll stick to being a quiet little VB student, and i'll get on with my minor school projects which are due in 7 days :omg:

                      I did, however, since SP1 was released just hour before posting this, Google hadn't indexed it yet.
