Or does the latest version already support building and linking with Visual Studio 2022? (haven't tried it yet)

Thank you!

Just tried it today in a 32-bit MFC project using C++ 20, Windows 10 SDK and Visual Studio 2022 (v143) platform toolkit. So far all works fine but the CodeJock dlls and libs were built previously using Visual Studio 2019.

I have not tried to build CodeJock using Visual Studio 2022 or any of the samples.

Sounds good, thanks! :)

(I'd appreciate a VS 2022 compiler rebuild of the libs nevertheless, as it probably might positively affect "whole program optimization" gains of VS2022 compiler/linker as we link XTP statically)

I suppose it will be a while before Visual Studio 2022 is officially supported. CodeJock just released 20.2 and still no support for Visual Studio 2022. I have tried to build the libraries using Visual Studio 2022, but the AppWizard integration is not supported in the Deployment Wizard.

With regards to the build process, I migrated the CodeJock project files to PlatformToolset v143, replaced "160" with "170" in the project files and added #define _XTPLIB_VISUALSTUDIO_VERSION "vc170" to XTToolkitPro.h. All built fine.

Of course (?) I do not plan to use these files in production. I'd rather wait for the official support. Also there are too many project files to update, if I want all of them to target VS 2022.

That's a pain. I'll now have to install VS 2019 alongside 2022. I wish Codejock would take advantage of Microsoft's beta program for Visual Studio, so that they are ready to update their software to coincide with Microsoft's releases.
