What Is New?
The Visual C++ Team is elated to announce that with Visual Studio 2017, it has substantially improved the quality of the C++ Modules TS implementation in Visual Studio,

The C++ product team here at Microsoft offers a great C++ experience in the Visual Studio IDE, the Visual Studio Code editor, and various other tools and services. That includes the topic of this blog post: the Microsoft Visual C++ compiler and libraries toolset (MSVC).

Since we first shipped Visual Studio 2015 we’ve talked a lot about Microsoft Visual C++ compiler and library (MSVC) conformance improvements in this blog. Our team has been focused on making MSVC the best compiler toolset for your development on Windows,

Two important features in C++11 received small upgrades in C++14 that had far-reaching effects.

In C++11, constexpr function bodies were allowed only to be a single return statement. In C++14, nearly all statements are now allowed in constexpr functions, allowing for much more idiomatic C++.

Concepts promise to fundamentally change how we write templated C++ code. They’re in a Technical Specification (TS) right now, but, like Coroutines, Modules, and Ranges, it’s good to get a head start on learning these important features before they make it into the C++ Standard.

Throughout the VS 2015 cycle we’ve been focusing on the quality of our expression SFINAE implementation. Because expression SFINAE issues can be subtle and complex we’ve been using popular libraries such as Boost and Microsoft’s fork of Range-v3 to validate our implementation and find remaining bugs.

The Visual C++ Team is excited to announce that the compiler in Visual Studio 2017 RC will feature a mode much closer to ISO C++ standards conformance than any time in its history.

Visual Studio “15” Preview 5 now includes the C++ Core Guidelines Checkers. This means you no longer have to install the C++ Core Check package from NuGet to check your code against rules and profiles in the C++ Core Guidelines. Just configure Code Analysis to include the C++ Core Check extensions.

Thank you for your feedback! We’ve made some changes to the layouts based on your feedback.
Update Dec 8 2016 Finding the location of a VC++ install: Some folks have asked about how to find instances of Visual C++ on a developer’s machine.

Visual C++ in VS “15” Preview 5 now allows you to see where errors are in a line of code—the column number—as opposed to just showing the line number. As C++ has grown it’s increasingly useful to have a little more help finding your errors.
