FWIW, info there on Comeau C++ is outdated (despite many emails to Ross).

Yes, I've apologised to Greg by mail for this, and I'd like apologise
again here. There are probably other people who have emailed me about
the chart and never got a reply. I'd been putting it off, meaning to
get around to doing a complete update sometime, and then a few weeks
ago I had a major disaster with my hard drive and lost most of my
unanswered mail.

I'll try to keep the chart up to date more promptly in future. If
anyone sent me updates that were never posted, please send them again.

Hi,

Is Standard C++ the same as Borland C++?

No. Borland C++ is a particular implementation of C++. Standard C++ is
the language defined by the international standard for C++. The last I
heard, there are still no compilers that are complete implementations of
standard C++. However, there are many that are approaching full
compliance.

Does anyone know of a list of compiler version deficiencies cf the
standard ?  (I know it's a long shot).

Please have a look at

http://animal.ihug.co.nz/c++/compilers.html

Information on Borland C++ has not been contributed, any volunteers?

A chart that attempts to address this issue is at
