Hi,

I use the Visual C++ .NET 2003 Standard Edition which doesn't include an
optimizing compiler. But Microsoft released the VC++ 2003 Toolkit
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/vctoolkit2003/) which provides an
optimizing compiler. Is it possible to replace the original "Standard"
compiler with this one ?

How could I do this ?

Thanks for your help,
Denis

I haven't tried it, and it isn't supported, but all you should need to do is
drop the files from .../vc7/bin from the VC++ toolkit into the corresponding
location in VC++ Standard edition. I'm certain that you'd need c2.dll,
since that's the compiler backend where the optimizer is implemented, but
I'd just go ahead and copy the entire directory.

-cd

Thank you, I'll try.
