Visual Studio 2019 vs 2017 - 06/18/20 18:47

The below was written in June 2019, and now it's June 2020. Is this still correct? And if so, what do the misleading error messages look like?

At the time of this writing (June 2019), Visual Studio 2019 was reported to sometimes display wrong or misleading error messages when the code had a syntax error. Until this problem is fixed, Visual Studio 2017 is preferable for strategy projects because it indicates syntax errors correctly.

I am not sure - I got that information from a client and don't recall what kind of syntax error it was. But unless you encounter strange errors, it is probably safe now to use VC++ 2019. Note that a header file has a different name in that version.
