Hello,
It seems yesterday's recent release of MSVC Insiders is confusing. I'm having to merge sources, which can be done compared to other attempts. It doesn't feel right.
I know there is a learning curve, and I tried MSVC 2026. It works with MSVC 2022 Preview. Under 2026, all projects (from 2022) were changed to "incompatible". I resolved a few of those on my end, so I know it is possible to fully compile under MSVC without being "incompatible".
I'm determined to fix/combine openjpeg (old) and jpeg2000 (new). The main issue, so far, is using IEEE formats, which was normal. Scanning for settings and other scripts, however, is still not normal. It is just not a showstopper. (I found an internal error with IEEE-to-decimal types in the compiler.) There was a lot of polishing. (The scanning was for "wireless" setups and hints.)
I'm not doing VSCode. I'm still using the MSVC IDE with Git. I sympathize.
