what software are required OD 16.4/17.1

Post by tomle » Tue May 09, 2017 4:31 pm

Hi All,

I have VS2012 Ultimate installed and it compiled fine with OD 15.4 target .net framework 4. But it won't compile OD 16.4/17.1. When I open the 16.4 sol file, it complaint about the .net target framework 4.5 is not installed, but the framework 4.5, 4.5.2 (multi target pack, etc..) and 4.6.1 are installed.

What software stack do people use to compile 16.4/17.1

Thanks

The reason why you're having trouble compiling 16.4 and later is because we use C# 6.0 code starting in that version. It looks like you can install a 6.0 compiler in VS2012: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2863 ... tudio-2012. If this doesn't work, you'll have to upgrade to VS2015 or VS2017.

You need VS 2015. update C# 6.0 still didn't work for me. I use VS 2015 instead
