== Optimizing Compiler? ==

I don't like this article as it indirectly suggests that all other compilers are *not* optimizing. Additionally, "Microsoft C/C++ Optimizing Compiler" is *not* the name of the compiler, though I forgot what the official name is. "Microsoft C Compiler", "Visual Studio", "Visual C Compiler"? Anyways, probably a good idea to rename this article. --[[User:Sortie|Sortie]] 13:14, 4 November 2013 (CST)

A couple of notes

  1. In "Building an OS image", the file Test.cpp AFAIK does an invalid write to video memory; the color attribute byte used in video memory (of which each cell is a word) is overwritten with the next character of the word. You may want to fix that to set a standard color.
  2. I think it may be handy if you also posted the versions of Wine and Visual C++ you used with this article. AFAIK not all versions of Wine work with each version of the VC++ compiler equally well.
