- Simple. Compiler bug. We noticed problems with nested class
- declarations in VC1. When reported to people at Microsoft we couldn't
- find anyone who could understand the problem.
-
- Invariably, after waiting on hold for a half hour then describing the
- problem to 3 different people each time a little faster and a little
- louder, conversations with support representatives would end with "So
- if it works when you don't nest your classes, maybe you shouldn't be
- nesting your classes.."
-
- Just makes you spew out "Have a nice day" as you slam the receiver and
- start shouting obscenities as a client walks by who has just
- unknowingly spent a forture for no good reason.
