Re: [sigc] ANNOUNCE: libsigc++ 2.0.5

[Martin Schulze <martin-ml hippogriff de>]

Hi!

Could the MSVC users give some feedback whether there are still  
problems building or using the library with the 2.0.5 tarball, please?

What about the outstanding problem about memory allocation and  
deallocation in library code versus inline functions?! Is this causing  
any troubles and does anybody prepare a patch?

Thanks!

 Martin
