Yeah, yeah, I knew that statement would get me in trouble. How about this: it is the best supported windows compiler out there. As soon as gcc gets all the point and click UI stuff that VC++ has, I will switch in a second. For now, I'm sticking with VC.
With the way windows does handles, it is still possible to have resources allocated after a program quits. While traditional new/delete statements will be freed, there are some weird instances where a program won't free all its handles. As an example, watch your free resource % in the performance tab. The more programs you have run, the lower this number gets, even if you quit programs the "nice" way. Basically, Windows sucks at memory management, and we as programmers need to give it all the help it can get. |
