Re: More problems with CINT

Just a remark on your question and in particular the style of your question: We have never pretended that CINT is an ISO compliant C++ interpreter. CINT is fulfilling its role as interpreter for the vast majority of tasks that it is supposed to do. All CINT users know that we have a trivial, simple, C++ compatible option for CINT scripts by using
the ACLIC interface to the native compiler. To use it (as explained in the very first pages of the ROOT Users Guide) do

   root > .x myscript.C+
instead of

   root > .x myscript.C

It is our hope that in the not too distant future, we can upgrade ROOT to use the LLVM compiler and its Just In Time features as a better solution. ACLIC has been found simple to use, you do not have to rewrite your scripts into another language, you can compile your scripts directly with a native compiler providing that your script is written in valid C++. The transition to LLVM should be transparent to our users.
