[aspectc-user] __declspec issues

Hi John,

I simply forgot to set the aspectc-user list on the reply, my fault.

The ac++ command line options are case sensitive, so you have to use 
"-v1" instead of "-V1". "-V" let ac++ print its version and then exit.

This directly depends on the aspects you apply and how and what you 
weave. Users of shared libraries depend on the public headers of the 
library so that only changes in the headers affect the use of the woven 
library. If you are introducing new methods in classes the interface of 
these classes change. But signatures of functions and methods are never 
changed. The only thing you don't have to forget is to weave the library 
headers using ac++'s "-i" command line option.
