Critical Technical Changes

This section describes the changes in Creo 4.0 M010 and Creo Object TOOLKIT C++ that might require alteration of existing Creo Object TOOLKIT C++ applications.

Support for Visual Studio

From Creo Parametric 4.0 M010 onward, Creo Object TOOLKIT C++ supports Visual Studio 2015. The compiler flags and libraries are available for Visual Studio 2015. Creo Object TOOLKIT C++ no longer supports Visual Studio 2012.

All Creo Object TOOLKIT C++ applications on 32-bit and 64-bit Windows platforms built using the Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 compiler must set the configuration property Platform Toolset as Visual Studio 2015 (v140).

To use the makefile based solution, you must add the flag -D_USING_V110_SDK71_ to the compile line of each object. These changes have been incorporated in the sample makefiles.
