| 24 | == Overview == |
| 25 | |
| 26 | This RFC proposes to adopt VS2019 as the standard compiler for building MapGuide/FDO on Windows |
| 27 | |
| 28 | == Motivation == |
| 29 | |
| 30 | Currently we are using VS2015 as the standard compiler for building MapGuide/FDO on Windows. While this has served us well, a recent upstream change in CS-Map has broken our trunk builds of MapGuide. Although [https://trac.osgeo.org/csmap/ticket/223 a ticket has been filed on the matter] there has been no action to see this issue rectified and none of the MapGuide developers have commit access to make this change. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | Since our hand has been forced, we might as well update our default MSVC compiler to VS2019 |
| 33 | |
| 34 | == Proposed Solution == |
| 35 | |
| 36 | Upgrade MapGuide/FDO project files to use the MSVC 2019 (v142) compiler toolset |
