[Flightgear-devel] Visual Studio 2005

[Vance Souders]

Microsoft has made major changes to the standard C++ and C runtime libraries under Visual Studio 2005.  When compiling Flightgear 0.9.9 under VS 2005, you get about 2500 deprecated function warnings because of these changes.  So, to build FG under VS 05 with zero errors and zero warnings is going to take a lot of minor code changes.  I wanted to get everyone’s opinion on the best way to do this while maintaining cross-platform compatibility.   More information on the changes can be found here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/05/05/SafeCandC/default.aspx   -Vance
