We don’t know what normal people argue about, but we know we spend a lot of time arguing about the best microcontroller, which editor is the best, and what language or compiler does the best job. The ...

As processor architectures evolve and the complexity of instructions increases, the role of the compiler in application development continually gains importance. The applications developed in the ...

Visual C++ however is widely regarded as one of the best, if not the best, compilers in existence. It doesn't seem like LLVM would be a good candidate to replace MSVC... but that's what's happening ...
