How are you compiling files that are C++?

[Sam Clegg, 2012/10/01 19:37:32]

Apparently if you call "gcc" it will detect the file
type based on the extension.  If you call g++ it will
always be c++ even for .c files.  I just discovered this
today myself.

                  ToolExe                            ="$(CLToolExe)"
                  ToolPath                           ="$(CLToolPath)"
                  TrackFileAccess                    ="$(TrackFileAccess)"
                  TrackerLogDirectory                ="%(ClCompile.TrackerLogDirectory)">
     </NaClCompile>
