.NET 4.0 client profile support

[dimzon]

I'm not C++ expert but i made such build myself, there are nothing special in plain C code (original codecs) which requre .NET 4.5.2

Unfortunally in my build I replace "zuki::io::compression" with "zuki_io_compression" otherwise get huge errors from VS2013 compiler... Since I'n not C++ developer I can't adapt this code for VS2013 C++ compiler syntax except replace "zuki::io::compression" with "zuki_io_compression"...

The namespace syntax xx:yy::zz is unique to C++ 17. The only Microsoft compilers that support it are Visual C++ 2015 and 2017. The alternative in C++ 2013 would be to create individual namespace scopes like this:

namespace zuki { namespace io { namespace compression {
.......
} } }

Does this answer your question? If you search and replace "namespace zuki::io::compression" with "namespace zuki { namespace io { namespace compression {" and fix the single end brace in each file to be tripled, I think that should let most of it build under VC 2013. There are probably other VC 2015 unique features that I used, I wasn't considering backwards compatibility ...

Let me know if I misunderstood!

The question is about official support for .NET 4 Client profile. Its not a big deal to build it against VS2013 so why not...

The library will not compile for .NET 4.0 as-is, it uses some .NET 4.5.x+ specific features. .NET 4.0 Client Profile is also not a "supported" target for C++/CLI, but you can hack the .vcxproj to use it if you're so inclined : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8154000/how-to-target-the-net-4-client-profile-for-c-cli-under-visual-studio-2010
