Re: Visual Studio 2008

Hi Cris,

Usually a compiler makes call to the OS, should be ok, only when alignment is unexpected like 4 or 8 bytes with structs etc.
Can you isolate the problem to something?
Not really related but once i had a problem with Delphi and SqLite, path names were changed to UTF-8 even when ASCII names should be fine...

And brave enough for recompiling is more a matter of a lot of time which most people not have :)
