[gecode-users] Windows compiler

[Christian Schulte]

Well…

 

Depends on what you want to do: if you want to compile Gecode yourself, then you have to stick to 2008 (while the trunk can be compiled with 2010, the latest released version 3.3.1 cannot). If you want x64 rather than x86 you have to stick to 2008 anyway (the 64 bit compiler is in the Windows DDK and last time I checked it was still 2008 or you have to buy the professional version of MSVC).

 

Compiling your programs and link to the Gecode binaries we distribute should be fine with 2010 as far as we know.

 

It’ll be quite a while before we will start distributing binaries ourselves compiled with MSVC 2010 as we still have to figure out some packaging issues and last time I checked Qt as needed for Gist did not compile with 2010 either. Eventually we will change, but unlikely this year.

 

Hope that helps

Christian

It is recommendable to use Visual Studio 2010 Express or should I stick to the 2008 Express version?
