Hi Rebecca, Thank you for bringing up this topic. I agree we should get Visual Studio compiler support for Arm in edk2. The Visual Studio static analysis has helped to detect issues in DynamicTablesPkg in the past (when we did not have any dependency on assembly code). I can see that Visual Studio Compiler support is already available in Project Mu. Would it be good to pull in the changes from there? We would need to: * look at the compatibility of the licenses. * review and align any changes with the latest edk2 code base (Note this effort would be significantly less than starting from scratch). @Oliver Smith-Denny is this something you can help with, please?

What do people think: would it be worthwhile, or should we stick with GCC and CLANG and avoid the maintenance overhead of another set of assembly files? -- Rebecca IMPORTANT NOTICE: The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential and may also be privileged.
