2. Prerequisites and Dependencies
NOTE: Current materials are now at the pre-alpha level,
Using pre-built VCShowDef customizations is straightforward. Development of new customizations requires some understanding of essential tools along with confident use of C Language:
- Windows File Explorer
- Visual Studio Native Build Tools
- Developer Command Prompt
- VC/C++ Command Line Compiler,
CL.exe
VCshowDefs is designed to work with versions of Visual Studio that are free for personal use, including the Visual Studio Build Tools (recommended) and the Visual Studio Community editions. Additional levels of Visual Studio can also be used, all via their Native Tools Command Prompt.
Disclaimer
VCshowDefs tends to be compiler and platform specific. The technique may be adaptable to other tools, such as GCC used on Windows, Linux, and other platforms. Portability is not assured.
The template and the confirmation case may be valuable in confirming operation with other compilers. Those use cases are out of scope for nfoTools at this time. Consult other sources for variations on VCshowDefs.
