Will Pro/Toolkit for Wildfire 5 compile with Visual Studio 2008 Express edition?
We are currently on Wildfire 3 and have several Pro/Toolkit applications (C++).
They were last compiled using Visual Studio 2003 Standard because the free Express edition did not include the needed compiler.
These toolkit apps no longer work in WildFire 5, which is no surprise. (error during initialization)
I assume I need to recompile with Visual Studio 2008 (per PTC docs).
However, the docs do not state which edition(s).
Is a purchased edition (Pro) still required?
Or does the free Express edition work now?
