Hi,
I wish to compile pure C and C++ programs wihtout OS specific features.
I tried to install minimal VS 2017 environment, but there are no project templates, e.g. only blank solution and shared project are available, thus, I cannot access project properties, and set things up. Apparenty, on writing a simple helloworld.c, neither stdio.h nor cstdio are found by the IDE (#include directive is underlined red).
The same happens on the command line utilites.
I want to emphasize, I do not intend to use OS specific features, intend to write "pure" portable code.
I will perhaps require some Win32 API calls, but that's it. Also, I want to use various make utilites and other compilers, but I don't want to integrate them into VS.
If someone knowledgable could advise me on a reasonable set of individual components needed to install minimal working setup that is able to compile a helloworld in C.
Thanks in advance.
