Borland has published the results for their compiler on 2,641 of the
Plum-Hall test cases. Follow the links from
http://www.borland.com/about/press/1999/plumhall.html to see the
details. Since the tests are described by section and paragraph number,
you can figure out exactly where this compiler is currently failing.
They also let users vote on which failed/skipped tests users would like
to see effort put into making compliant.
Maybe with some luck this will start a compliance war between vendors.
I sure hope so! Ask your compiler supplier for their test results.
