Dear V8 Project Contributors, First, I'd like to express my appreciation for your work on the V8 project. The engine has been a crucial component in many projects, including ours.
I'm reaching out to the community to gather some information about the current status of Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC) support in V8, particularly for embedding V8 as a shared DLL. We've been using V8 in this configuration and have some questions about its future support. We've noticed that V8 version 13 has been released, but we couldn't find specific information in the commit tags or on the V8 Blog regarding deprecating or removal of MSVC support. We've also seen some discussions in the community suggesting potential changes to it. If possible, we'd greatly appreciate any insights on the following: 1. What is the current status of MSVC support for V8 when used as a shared DLL? 2. Are there any plans to change MSVC support in future versions? If so, is there a general timeline available? 3. Are there any specific considerations in Version 13 that affect MSVC compatibility, especially for shared DLL usage? 4. If changes to MSVC support are planned, are there recommended alternatives for projects using V8 as a shared DLL on Windows platforms? 5. Could you point us to any documentation or resources that might help us understand the project's direction regarding MSVC support? We understand that as an open source project, plans can change so any information you can provide would be incredibly helpful for our planning and potential contributions to the project. Thank you for your time and for your continued work on V8. We're grateful for the opportunity to be part of this community.
