You might check out how the VisualUEFI project builds EDK2. According to it's readme, it works with VS2015. https://github.com/ionescu007/VisualUefi Here's a blog post that also shows info on using VS2015 with EDK2: http://pete.akeo.ie/2015/01/easily-create-uefi-applications-using.html ___ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/edk2-devel

EFI edk2 code does not support floating point, so you may run into porting issues from tool chain to toolchain if you use floating point.

Re: [edk2] EDK2 build using Visual Studio
_fltused symbol is generated by compiler. You can just define this symbol in one C file to satisfy the linker like below: int _fltused = 1; Thanks Liming From: GN Keshava [mailto:keshava...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, June 5, 2017 9:04 PM To: Gao, Liming <liming@intel.com>; edk2-devel@lists.01.org Cc: Carsey, Jaben <jaben.car...@intel.com> Subject: Re: [edk2] EDK2 build using Visual Studio Hi Liming, Thanks for the reply.

Re: [edk2] EDK2 build using Visual Studio
Hi Liming, Thanks for the reply. I had tried this, but was getting errors that I didn't get on VS2008, mainly, error LNK2001 unresolved external symbol __fltused I didnt get this error on VS2008, but the same workspace is giving this error on VS2015. :( Thanks.
