Hi,
Yes sounds like a good idea. Have been contemplating testing it too.
I just installed the "Build Tools for Visual Studio 2022"
https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/#build-tools-for-visual-studio-2022
"These Build Tools allow you to build Visual Studio projects from a command-line
interface."
Does that mean
this is Visual Studio without the "Visual", i.e. it's all the
command-line tools, but without the IDE
or
if you just install Visual Studio, you don't get the command-line tools
- you also have to install this?
The former sounds like "Command Line Tools for Xcode {version}" on macOS or "don't
install any IDE" on the free-software UN*Xes (I don't know whether Oracle Studio offers that).
The latter seems less likely, as I think most IDEs either run the
compiler/linker/other tools directly or run some builder program (make,
msbuild, etc.) that runs the compiler/linker/other tools, but I guess if the
core of the compiler/linker are in libraries that the command-line tools link
with and that an IDE program could link with as well (say hello, LLVM), it
would be possible.
The Developer's Guide recommends installing the Native Desktop workload.
Reading through the list of components at
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/install/workload-component-id-vs-build-tools?view=vs-2022#desktop-development-with-c
it looks like Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.CoreBuildTools corresponds to
"Build Tools for Visual Studio 2022" and
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.Tools.x86.x64 includes the compiler.
I set up my environment by running
----
choco install -y visualstudio2022community
visualstudio2022-workload-nativedesktop
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvars64.bat
----
The first line of `cl.exe /?` returns
----
Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 19.30.30706 for x64
----
