 Topic: Visual Studio 2017 Support?Posted: 07 March 2017 at 4:55pm |

Hi,
Visual Studio 2017 has been released, when can we expect a version of Toolkit Pro with support for VS 2017? (I can probably add it myself, but better to get an official release.) Thanks, Fredrik

Windows 10, Visual Studio 20157, Toolkit Pro 18.3.0

On past experience, Toolkit Pro support for new releases of Visual Studio is available 6-9 months after the launch date.

We've already built 17.2.0 on VS 2017

If 18 is still out of sight, maybe you could release a version 17.3.1 with VS 2017 support?

I think the only change we did to get CJ 17.2 (we didn't move to 17.3 yet since we patched 17.2 a few places) was to add support in the main CJ header for the version of the compiler.
I think it took my dev about 5 minutes to figure this out, so maybe easier than you fear.

I've been looking into doing this as well. I think we can make a single change to "XTToolkitPro.h".
So instead of this: #if _MSC_VER == 1900 #define _XTPLIB_VISUALSTUDIO_VERSION "vc140" #endif We would check as follows: #if _MSC_VER => 1900 #define _XTPLIB_VISUALSTUDIO_VERSION "vc140" #endif I believe this works because VS 2017 C++ compiler retains binary compatibility. Adrien, is this consistent with what you did? - Mark R. |
