Back in July, Oliver sent the following message: "Per Liming's request I am moving this discussion to the mailing list. Now that VS2022 support has been added to edk2, can we drop VS2015 support (honestly VS2017 could be dropped, too). This is an almost 10 year old toolchain that is unsupported, has many quirks, and will continue to require odd changes from new code to support it, for no gain. VS2015 (and 2017) users should move to VS2022." In addition, since GCC48, GCC49 and GCC5 have been marked deprecated for=20 over a year, I'd like to proceed with removing them as well. Please provide feedback by Thursday October 31st. In the absence of=20 feedback I'll plan to proceed with removing VS2015, GCC48, GCC49 and GCC5. --=20 Rebecca Cran -=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
