Re: Porting from VC6 to VS2005

I should stop typing when I am tired. That should have been 'for'. ARGH!

Joe:

I don't see this construct with "if" as anything I would ever do, but the
analogous thing with "for" is of course very common. IMHO, absolutely the best
way to deal with this is the

#if _MSC_VER < 1300
#define for if(false){} else for
#endif

trick. Then you never need to write obsolete code again, and your VC6 projects
will update correctly.
