Garantiert :-) Aber MS kennt seine Kundschaft, und die wissen auch, dass
sie sich dann unbeliebt machen, egal was im Standard steht.

Im Annex J des ANSI C Standards war "undefined behaviour" schön zusammen
aufgelistet, im ANSI C++ Standard ist es über die gesamten 776 Seiten
verteilt (Fassung von 1998). Mein Favorit aus ANSI C:

,----
| A nonempty source file does not end in a new-line character, ends in
| new-line character immediately preceded by a backslash character, or
| ends in a partial preprocessing token or comment (5.1.1.2).
`----

Bei irgendeinem der im Laufe der Jahre verwendeten Compiler hatte ich
tatsächlich mal ein ganz obskures Problem, weil eine include-Datei nicht
mit einem LF endete.

Schönerweise gibt es dann auch noch neben "undefined behaviour" und
"implementation defined behaviour" das "unspecified behaviour" ;-) Das
macht C++ so "spannend" und krank, und Programmierer, die portablen Code
schreiben können so selten.

Freundliche Grüße,
Christoph
