I've been working with SUA and found a couple bugs. Any suggestions on how to report these to MS?

FYI, the bugs are:

1. cc has no way of linking C++ code.
This works:
cc test.C
But this does not because the link is performed as C instead of C++:
cc -c test.C
cc test.o

2. <sys/time.h> misspells __cplusplus as _cplusplus (missing underscore.)

If you are using SUA then you are in the Beta Program.
Report all bugs through the bug reporting system with BetaPlace.

For (1) this is not a bug. Using cc and c89 is for C code only.
These have never been for C++ code. Only gcc is for C++ code. Which means
that you can only do it on the 32-bit machines and not the 64-bit.

For (2) report it to BetaPlace.

One of the enhancement with SUA is for c89 to support C++:
"The C++ library supplied with this package is compatible
with the Whidbey Beta 2 compiler, and can be used with the c89."
-- from http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/R2/unixcomponents/webinstall.mspx

I had not heard of BetaPlace -- thanks for pointing that out.
Apparently SUA and W2K3 R2 are not using it in all cases. I did not
get a Beta ID and was not allowed to log in.

Right, I'd forgotten about Whidbey doing that.

If you can't login to BetaPlace to register a bug then I would guess that
PSS (MS support) would be a good spot.

FYI
There is an R2/SUA bug related to using Visual Studio's debugger on an Interix process. If the executable is created without some extension (e.g. abc instead of abc.out), Visual Studio will not think the abc.pdb symbol file belongs to the program.
