C++ 2010 or 2012

Is Irrlicht compatible with Visual Studio 2012 express? I would imagine so but though i would ask before i download.

Is there any particular reason you can't try it out right now? Irrlicht isn't exactly a huge download.

[Oster200]

well i just dont have vsc++ downloaded yet and was just wondering if it worked fine with irrlicht before i downloaded vsc++ 2012 if not than im using 2010

VS will always try to update your project, so you might as well go with 2012.

I'm still using VS 2010, but Irrlicht trunk already has 2012 project files, so I guess Hybrid is working with that already. Which means Irrlicht seems to work with it.

I use VS 2012, Irrlicht works perfectly with this soft.

Since I'm stil on Windows XP on my main machine, I cannot use VS2012 regularly. But I have a VM with Winodws 8 and MSVC 2012, where I also created the project files.

I'm using 2012 for Quadfighter, but I didn't see any difference.

There are no realy useful new features. The range based for loop is nice and the new headers like chrono and thread are also but most of the useful features were implemented before or are still missing in VC12.

[Oster200]

well since it sounds like it can work with 2012 i will just use that

if you want the new features you should go for clang. It compiles in no time, and provide very usefull warnings and errors thanks to VLLM.
unluckily is still hard getting a working installation of clang on windows but i've seen few tutorials recently. oh and it is compatible with GCC
