-G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64"

[Igor Yalovecky]

Hi, it's about installation for Windows.

According to https://github.com/dealii/dealii/wiki/Windows i need "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" generator, but VS 2017 doesn't have such a toolset by design. I cite from here Microsoft Developer Community

The fact that we temporarily shipped a 'v150' Platform Toolset in early Visual Studio "15" Previews was an unfortunate artifact of us working through our versioning plan. For Visual Studio 2017 RC, there is no 'v150' Platform Toolset "By Design".

 

Visual Studio 2017 RC provides two Platform Toolset versions : v141 (default) and v140 (VS 2015 Update 3) as selectable Visual C++ toolsets.

  

What you are seeing is, in fact, the expected and intended behavior of Visual Studio 2017. If you created applications/projects using Visual Studio "15" Preview releases, please modify those projects to make use of the 'v141' Platform Toolset.

  

Best Regards,

Igor,

if you install VS 2015 you need to use "Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64"
if you install VS 2017 use "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64"
