The Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 workspace file is VisualStudio.dsw located
in the VisualStudio below the OSG this root directory. The OSG will compile
with the basic VisualC++6.0, but, and this is a big but, the STL version
which comes with VisualC++6.0 is extremely buggy and unable to handle things
even as simple as std::mamp without crashing, even the latest service packs
(which are recommended won't fix the STL bugs). This is a problem for the
OpenSceneGraph since it makes proper use of Standard C++. One can struggle
on with the MS's and expect crashes and optimization disabled, or adopt
one of the following:

files can also be used in VisualStudio7.0 without problem.
<p><b>IMPORTANT NOTE:</b> Whilst the OSG will compile cleanly with the basic VC++6.0 and
its own STL implementation, the OSG will crash regularily due to bugs in VC++6.0's
STL. VC++6.0's STL is horribly broken and therefore is <b>*NOT*</b> supported. Do not
attempt to use the OSG in conjunction with native VC++6.0 STL implemention.
