Description Chuck Rolke 2014-10-14 17:13:18 UTC

Description of problem:

Builds are produced with Visual Studio 2008 and 2010. This limits client applications to building with those versions. Customers may like to build with Visual Studio 2012, 2013, or even "14" which is in tech preview.

At issue with using older WinSDK kits with newer Visual Studio development systems is the underlying MSVC runtime library use. 

  Visual Studio     Run time
  -------------     --------
   2008             msvc  9
   2010             msvc 10
   2012             msvc 11
   2013             msvc 12

For example, a WinSDK linked with VS2010 uses MSVC 10 run time libraries. If this WinSDK is linked into a customer project built with VS2012 then the WinSDK still uses MSVC 10 run time while the rest of the project will use MSVC 11. Running two MSVC run time libraries in the same executable is a bad practice.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

3.0

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. None required. The WinSDK kits do not exist.
2.
3.

Actual results:

No WinSDK for Visual Studio 2012, 2013

Expected results:

WinSDK kits for Visual Studio 2012, 2013

Additional info:

Support for this work has been committed upstream.
