We're on VS2003 right now and haven't yet swapped to the new code update but if VS2005 has significant advantages we may well swap as part of the shift over to the new code base.

RE: [hlcoders] VS2003 vs VS2005
One other nice thing is that VS 2005 will take advantage of multi-core machines and build projects in parallel on the different cores. That's kind of a niche reason, but it can help cut compile time for some people. -Mike -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Adam "amckern" Mckern Sent: Wednesday, November 01, 2006 3:42 PM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlcoders] VS2003 vs VS2005 The Compilers For a starter the code runs closer to the ISO It also uses alot more secure code - more or less to stop Data Overflow Exploits.

Forget the compiler, the debugger is leaps and bounds above VS2003. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Adam "amckern" Mckern Sent: Wednesday, November 01, 2006 5:42 PM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlcoders] VS2003 vs VS2005 The Compilers For a starter the code runs closer to the ISO It also uses alot more secure code - more or less to stop Data Overflow Exploits.

[hlcoders] VS2003 vs VS2005
Seeing as the SDK will support VS2005 in upcoming updates whats the low-down on the differences? What exactly are the pros vs. cons for a mod using either version? We're on VS2003 right now and haven't yet swapped to the new code update but if VS2005 has significant advantages we may well swap as part of the shift over to the new code base.
