Removing vs2010 and vs2012 support.

Post by fluffyfreak »

I'm just trying to find out if anyone uses vs2012 (vs2010 has been properly broken for a while now) before I merge a Pull Request over on GitHub and remove support for them both entirely. [url]https://github.com/pioneerspacesim/pioneer/pull/2772[/url] It will be possible for someone to resurrect them in the future if they wanted too, however we are now using more and more C++11 features that neither vs2010 or vs2012 support. This obviously only affects Windows developers. There is still a free version of Visual Studio 2013 Express Edition that can be downloaded from Microsoft, or you can use Code::Blocks following the instructions here: [url][url]http://pioneerspacesim.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=110[/url] Thanks, Andy

Search for "Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Express Edition Desktop", that's the version that I maintain for Windows developers.Luomu has instructions for using Code::Blocks up on the wiki but I haven'tr tried that myself yet. Otherwise yes we're using some C++11 features so the older compilers won't work anymore.
