>A recent question on Ask Wireshark [1] brought up the issue of which version >of Visual Studio we should be targeting with releases. > >Part of the issue is all the 3rd party libs that may be linked with a specific >version of the MSVC run-time DLL. > >It has been suggested that we move to VS2012, is there a QT for 2012?

I would like us to use the most recent (as long as it's been >out for 3 >months or so) version of VS for a new release, is this practical? > >Apart from dev's own VS environments there are the buildbots to consider. I couldn’t install Visual studio 2013 on my work computer as it complained Explorer was too old, unfortunately I can’t upgrade Explorer so I’d vote for 2012 ☺ As at this point it’s only LUA(?) giving problems we could support at least two LUA versions, the dll’s are available. Otherwise in principle I agree with Graham to use the latest version. >I also read somewhere else that MS will supply VS licences for open source >projects, do you know anything about that Gerald?
