Hi @eraud,

As of today, the Rhino 8 WIP is built with the Visual Studio 2019 (v142) platform toolset. Thus, you should be able to use either VS 2019 or VS 2022 for C++ plug-in development.

thanks ,for the moment rhino8 is a WIP , do you think the Release Version will only be associated to VS 2022 ?

Hi @eraud,

At this point probably not. But you never know.

Hi @eraud,

If you are using this:

https://www.rhino3d.com/download/rhino-sdk/8/latest/

then you’ll need to test with this.

Does this help?

To write C++ plugins for Rhino 8 using the Rhino 8 C/C++ SDK, you will need a version of Microsoft Visual Studio that includes the Visual Studio 2019 (v142) platform toolset.

So either VS2019 or VS2022 will work.
