i installed visual c++ build tools 2015 on machine running windows 7.
in windows sdk 8.1 , 10 there no windows xp targeting platform support.
it introduced in windows sdk 7.1a, can't find download it. included in visual studio 2012 update 4, rather not install visual studio it.
is there way target windows xp (v110_xp) using build tools 2015?
i think sdk 7.1 + visual studio 2010 last version support xp without having install additional taget windows sdk 7.1. tricky install old versions of sdk if have installed more recent version of vs. vs2010 doesn't have complete support c++11 since predates that.
since sdk 8 compilers not included, , should installed vs express and/or community. see if want compile c++11 code tagetting xp configuring c++ 11 programs windows xp. if recall correctly _xp taget not included in rtm version, , should install sp1.
