On the Wikipedia List Of Compilers page, it tells you if a compiler is "Unix-like". What does this mean? Does it effect how to write the source code? I'm coming over from MinGW (which is listed as "Unix-like" to another compiler, just wanted to see if this was a important thing to look out for).

I think you miss-understand. That column indicates if your compiler is available on a "unix-like" OS/platform, of which linux is an example.
You can see this by the fact that MingGW is listed under the windows column for compilers (GCC) which are available on many platforms, which means that MinGW is the windows port/version of GCC (in the context of this question).

Visual Studio allows instructs to clear the processors interrupt flag via _disable or _enable (see link). When, it is recommended to use such tools. Especally, in view of performance.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/tzkfha43.aspx
_disable() and _enable() are used, respectively, to disable and enable interrupts.
Read more about interrupts here.
If you're a C++ beginner, you probably don't need this, except if your goal is to write an operating system kernel.
In your case, never. Just forget it exists. :)

I have written an implementation of the ISO C++ proposal for array_view, which may make it into a future revision of the standard (C++17?). The implementation is all my own work, but by design reflects the proposal very closely and, for example, includes almost a direct copy of the class interfaces, all of which is not my own work. It's available on open-std.org as N4512.
Before I post my implementation to GitHub - just the acknowledgement I am using someone else's work makes me want to check. Clearly both commercial and open source implementations are available, but they may know things I don't. Am I free to post my implementation to GitHub, under my own (permissive) license?

I want to read some unicode parameters via C++ main function. In Windows I can use wmain which is Mircosoft extension to standard C++. But I don't know to how to do the same in Linux platforms.
On linux you use the Standard C++ main function, and your data will be conveyed through char const*.
You should probably expect the encoding to be UTF-8 because this is the default on Linux.

If it doesn't solve indtall and updated Dev C++ version.

You may need to use the 64-bit version of mingw.
An updated version of dev-cpp is available at https://sourceforge.net/project

I would like to use openMP with compiler VS2010. what is license status for openMP? can it be freely used in commercial software, and can you point at the relevant doc?
thanks and regarsd
OpenMP by itself is an API specification, so there's no license for using it. The implementation provided by your compiler is subject to the same license of the latter, so with Visual Studio you can of course use it in a commercial software.
Couldn't find relevant source to point out.
