Question about VS17 Source files

[jeromerz]

Hello guys,

I would like to know if VS17 source files can be compiled using the VS19 Pro software. If no, is their any guide in upgrading the VS17 source file to VS19 without recoding it, like small changes will be applied instead of redoing all the things.



Thank you in advance.

Regards.

The only thing you have to do after retargeting is set BrowseInformation to No in all projects and remove the file specific BrowseInformation generation in the project files.

After that you shouldnt run into any problems other than the newer compiler version bombarding you with even more warnings.

Thank you i have tested building the VS17 source to VS19 and it seems it was able to build the .exe files but there are alot of warnings like 4010 linker warnings and errors about the subsystem.

But i guess it is okay to ignore those..

Thank you for the response

Regards
