Mar 21, 2018  Earlier this month, we released version 7.4 of Visual Studio for Mac, our IDE for developers on macOS who are building mobile, web, and cloud apps. Today, we’re announcing the first preview of Visual Studio for Mac version 7.5, which you can get by changing the updater channel in Visual Studio for. Not all C++ code is cross-platform and compilers are obviously written by different development groups (Visual C++ by Microsoft, Intel writes their own, and gcc is the open source compiler used on OS X) obviously do not use the same commands or syntax.
