Issue #19982 has been updated by k0kubun (Takashi Kokubun). Assignee set to usa (Usaku NAKAMURA) ---------------------------------------- Feature #19982: Bump required Visual Studio version to 2015 after 3.3 https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19982#change-105121 * Author: kddnewton (Kevin Newton) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: usa (Usaku NAKAMURA) ---------------------------------------- Visual Studio 2013 is finally being EOL'd next April. (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/productinfo/vs-servicing#older-versions-of-visual-studio) Let's drop support for it after Ruby 3.3 is released. If we bump the required version to Visual Studio 2015, we'll get better C99 support and be able to rely on some more standards. Personally I'm excited about `snprintf` being actually implemented. (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/overview/visual-cpp-language-conformance?view=msvc-170#c-standard-library-features-1) As support for the argument, CPython requires VS2017 (https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/PCbuild/readme.txt) and gnulib requires VS2015(https://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/Supported-Platforms.html). -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ ______________________________________________ ruby-core mailing list -- ruby-core@ml.ruby-lang.org To unsubscribe send an email to ruby-core-leave@ml.ruby-lang.org ruby-core info -- https://ml.ruby-lang.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/ruby-core.ml.ruby-lang.org/
