I see almost all of those new Harmony users were frustrated by the
build failures with VS2005, so it's not only a developer's issue. We
should be realistic and Harmony better be user-friendly.
Does the build documentation say that anything besides VS2003 is
supported? I agree that we should try to get things working on VS2005,
but is there a problem in our documentation that's confusing people?
I do not think so, IMO people just assume backward compatibility for
VS2005 (or read docs cursorily at times). We might add more prominent
warning about VS2005 to avoid frustration until the situation
improves. Another source of complaints, I guess, is missing Platform
SDK - unexperienced user may confuse it with MSVS or think it is a
part of the latter. But both are listed in the reqs.
BTW, any volunteers to summarize recent gust of issues to FAQ?
Better yet, anyone who has that, or the later version, can raise issues
and help us fix it so it works on more compilers.
