from what I saw listed at a web page, the "::" scope operator was at top. looks close to precedence in c++ dos. not surprised "::" is first relating to standards. |
Yes, but it is not at the very top. So it's incorrect.
:: has a higher priority than ()
In what you posted, they have equal priority. That is incorrect.
did you know source codes are available on web for dos compilers? |
What does that have to do with anything?
those sources could be used to compile a c++ dos program which is considered too old a compiler by disch. |
When you update Turbo C++ to be standards compliant, let me know and I will retract my statement.
Of course... if you do that... the compiler will no longer be 24 years old... so Cubbi's original claim would still be correct: 24 Year old compilers should not be used as a reference.
i make my own decisions about what i use or not whether disch approves or not. |
I'm fine with that. Just don't spread bad information to newbies. That's all I really care about.
And when someone calls you out and tells you your information is bad...
listen to them and learn from your mistake. Don't start an argument trying to defend a clearly faulty point.
I have been corrected numerous times on this forum... and each time I'm not only gracious about it, but am actually grateful for the person correcting me. It's a learning experience.
Don't be so stubborn. This isn't debate class.
you said in certain words that precedence did not change. disch argued opposite. |
That's not true at all.
You said that in this post:

operator precedence should be same today as was then |

never claimed your operator precedence table was correct. You are taking his quote clearly out of context. What he said was this:

Operator precedence did not change. At all. It is just your beloved souce that got it completely wrong from the very beginning. |
He's saying that the
standard never changed (which is never did) -- but your precedence table was incorrect because it was pre-standard.
i can counter incorrect arguments all I choose. |
Except that's not what you're doing. You're misinterpretting everything we say and arguing a completely fallacious point. You could not possibly be any more wrong than you are.
