Title: Support for newer MS Visual C++ compilers?
Post by: Михаил Агарков on August 19, 2025, 02:53:53 pm
The C::B wiki only briefly mentions (https://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/Installing_a_supported_compiler#Windows) that Visual C++ 2003 - 2010 are still supported, but are no longer available from their original publishers. Are there plans to add support for newer versions?

Try it and see; but, C::B likely cannot debug using MSVC debugger.

I have used it with newer MSVC compilers for a long time, currently using MSVC2022.  I don't use the C::B debugger on Windows, instead I launch the MSVC debugger via the Tools menu as shown in the attachment.
