- Visual C/C++ 1.52 is the latest version of the Microsoft 16bit Visual C
- compiler. Version 4 is 32bit (Win 95, NT or 32s) only. The 16 bit
- compiler has a different MFC library and doesn't fully support exceptions
- or templates. You'll only need this if you plan to develop for DOS or
- Win 3.1.
-
- Hope this helps.
-
- Keith.
