The predecessor to Visual C++ was called Microsoft C/C++.There was also a Microsoft QuickC 2.5 and a Microsoft QuickC for Windows 1.0. The Visual C++ compiler is still known as Microsoft C/C++ and as of the release of Visual C++ 2015 Update 2, is on version 14.0.23918.0.
Starting with the 2005 edition, Visual Studio also added extensive 64-bit support. While the host development environment itself is only available as a 32-bit application, Visual C++ 2005 supports compiling for x86-64 (AMD64 and Intel 64) as well as IA-64 . [135] The Platform SDK included 64-bit compilers and 64-bit versions of the libraries.
vcpkg provides access to C and C++ libraries to its supported platforms. The command-line utility is currently available on Windows, macOS and Linux. [2] vcpkg was first announced at CppCon 2016. [3] The vcpkg source code is licensed under MIT License and hosted on GitHub. [4] vcpkg supports Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 and above.
MFC is a library that wraps portions of the Windows API in C++ classes, including functionality that enables them to use a default application framework.Classes are defined for many of the handle-managed Windows objects and also for predefined windows and common controls.
This runtime library is used by programs written in Visual C++ and a few other compilers (e.g. MinGW). Some compilers have their own runtime libraries. With Version 14.0 (Visual Studio 2015), most of the C/C++ runtime was moved into a new DLL, UCRTBASE.DLL, which conforms closely with C99.
Platform SDK is the successor of the original Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 3.1x and Microsoft Win32 SDK for Windows 9x.It was released in 1999 and is the oldest SDK. Platform SDK contains compilers, tools, documentations, header files, libraries and samples needed for software development on IA-32, x64 and IA-64 CPU architectures. .
Edison Design Group: provides production-quality front end compilers for C, C++, and Java (a number of the compilers listed on this page use front end source code from Edison Design Group [111]). Additionally, Edison Design Group makes their proprietary software available for research uses.
Microsoft Visual Studio Express was a set of integrated development environments (IDEs) that Microsoft developed and released free of charge.They are function-limited version of the non-free Visual Studio and require mandatory registration. [3]
