Thankfully VS2015 finally kills off the static MSVCRT. You'll get DLLs and DLLs only from VS2015 onwards
That's incorrect. /MT and /MTd will be fully supported in 2015, just like previous versions. Both the CRT and STL have static libs.
Thanks for the catch Stephan. I missed the mention of the static libs. Out of curiosity, if the MSVCRT is now ABI stable and there is therefore now much gain from shipping bug fixed DLLs, what's the point of keeping static libs? Even on embedded systems like xbox and Windows Phone I don't see the cost benefit. Niall -- ned Productions Limited Consulting http://www.nedproductions.biz/ http://ie.linkedin.com/in/nialldouglas/
