Hi Robert,
My MSVC ionstallation is broken. Can you please build the following program,
pass -1 to it and check the exit code?

#include <iostream>
int main() { unsigned int i; std::cin >> i; return std::cin.good() ? 0 : 1; }


Ah, good plan, I'll do it tm when I have the compiler available.

Ultimately I believe the behaviour occurs because strtoul() returns the
global errno, and it's not checked by the streaming lib, so it will
be interesting to see the stream state.

Cheers, Rob.
