Comment 15 for bug 1202101

I've got more bad news I'm afraid. :( In the latest development version we have done several changes to the build process and organized the source code to be more modular. This is a good thing, as it allows for looser coupled code and easier for developers to get an overview over how things are connected. One of the negative side-effects of this is that we currently only support GCC and Clang/LLVM.

It shouldn't be too hard to re-add support for Visual Studio again, but we will need someone running Windows and the latest version* of VS to look into whether it is working and what needs to be done. I know it can sound disheartening that we've stopped supporting VS, but I would really like to see it listed among the list of supported compilers. If you want to work on this, please let us know and we'll be happy to assist with any answers or help we may be able to offer. :)

* we now require compiler support for various c++11 functionality which we use in the code base.
