From e07e446a3f9eac467b29dd9e482f2bc79a3f372c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Ludwig Date: Sat, 25 Feb 2017 21:23:12 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] WinRT: removed Windows 8.0 from build-bot + NuGet package creation scripts According to Steam's OS stats, Windows 8.0 use is pretty much nil. Further, Microsoft hasn't support Windows 8.0 development in any of their actively-updated toolchains, and setting it up can be a pain. In theory, SDL2 still supports Windows 8.0, however building of Windows 8.0 .dlls is no longer the default, if and when using the 'winrtbuild.*' scripts. The MSVC 2012 project files for building Windows 8.0 dlls remain, though, for the time being. --- VisualC-WinRT/SDL2-WinRT.targets | 1 - build-scripts/winrtbuild.ps1 | 12 +++++++++--- 2 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/VisualC-WinRT/SDL2-WinRT.targets b/VisualC-WinRT/SDL2-WinRT.targets index f0b9e9731..b9f274b1a 100644 --- a/VisualC-WinRT/SDL2-WinRT.targets +++ b/VisualC-WinRT/SDL2-WinRT.targets @@ -2,7 +2,6 @@ - WinRT80 WinRT81 WinPhone80 WinPhone81 diff --git a/build-scripts/winrtbuild.ps1 b/build-scripts/winrtbuild.ps1 index 31ac504b3..1fdd58ae8 100644 --- a/build-scripts/winrtbuild.ps1 +++ b/build-scripts/winrtbuild.ps1 @@ -220,9 +220,15 @@ if ( !
