Yes, but every other compiler seems to be happy with having
	friend class GenericMediaServer;
in "GenericMediaServer::ClientConnection”, and don’t require having 
	friend class RTSPServer;
there as well.

Once again: Please check whether an upgrade to your compiler is available.

Probably not anytime soon, but it may happen at some point in the future if the number of Windows-specific incompatibilities with the rest of the world continues to increase, and the importance of Windows continues to decline.  (Here in Silicon Valley, it seems that almost nobody bothers with Windows anymore.)
