In general, when I want tight conformance (personally, always), I pass "-ansi -pedantic-errors" to the compile flags. You can also fine-tune with -std=c++{98,03,0x}. May not be bullet-proof, but any issues can always be filed (and hopefully fixed). :) Fang David Fang Computer Systems Laboratory Electrical & Computer Engineering Cornell University http://www.csl.cornell.edu/~fang/ -- (2400 baud?
