Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-4462:
---------------------------------------
There's no particular reason for 1.7.5, it was just the latest version when
this was last changed. Feel free to submit a PR bumping the version number.
> Upgrade LZ4 v1.7.5 to v1.8.3 to compile with VS2017

> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Developer Tools
> Reporter: Areg Melik-Adamyan
> Priority: Minor
>
> By upgrading to LZ4 v1.8.3 the patch and patching step can be removed as it
> is incorporated into a newer version of VS2010 solution and also VS2017
> solution is provided which ease the usage with newer versions. Is there a
> reason or fixed dependency on v1.7.5?
> There is still an issue with newer than v8.1 MS Build Tools, and requires
> manual retargeting. Which can be fixed in CMake by introducing complex logic
> of reading registry tree
> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSBuild\ToolsVersions\4.0\1*.0 and
> analyzing which version of tools are installed and then patching the solution
> and projects. But as this is an external dependency better to submit patch
> there.
