The following doesn't compile with what is latest and greatest from Microsoft MSVC. Advertised last year as able to run the following:
Project Settings Changed:
/EHsc (required: C++ exceptions)
/MD (required: Multi-threaded DLL)
/experimental:module (required: enable C++ 20 standard [experimental] modules)
/std:c++latest (required: enable latest draft)
app.cpp:
import std.core;
int main(int argc, const char* argv) {
std::cout << "test\n";
return 0;
}
I got interested from reading this post: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/cpp/modules-cpp?view=msvc-170
I simply cannot get it running. My version is Visual Studio 2022 17.1.4, the latest version. I have all build tool versions installed that are available for selection. I started with the latest, and that gave me this error so I added more, and that did nothing. Everything C++ and SDK-related are installed.
fatal error C1011: Cannot locate standard module interface. Did you install the library part of the C++ modules feature in VS setup?
And that's not actually a 'package' you can select from in the installer. I do have all the build tools for all C++ versions. I suppose it didn't install it but I have no idea what else I can install here. I have absolutely everything selected. I think this feature was simply broken for this release but I cannot downgrade to an older version as used in the tutorial.
