Code C2220 format.h 341

[Stammer6]

Hi, everyone! I'm quite new to all of this, so bear with me. I followed the instructions to the letter, having tried now on two different computers (Windows 10 & 11), and on one of them twice. All three attempts have resulted in this error in VisualStudio 2022 while attempting to build the project.

Error code C2220 ...\server\build\x64-Debug_deps\spdlog-src\include\spdlog\fmt\bundled\format.h (line 341)

Line 341 is as follows:
template <typename T> using checked_ptr = stdext::checked_array_iterator<T*>;

I've looked up similar issues before making this discussion, and I've tried making slight alterations to the line in question as well as lines around it. I've also formatted it to UTF-8 with BOM to see if that would help. No dice. I'd be grateful for some pointers.

Thanks in advance!

I have the same error when trying to build as shown in the guide. I am at a standstill on this and not sure where to go.

Already stepped through dependencies and includes? Don't always get a friendly message when the chain gets broken.

Follwed the guide exactly a few times over. Similar issue with format.h line 490 throws 22 errors and 1402 warnings. Build fails and the 4 files, i.e. xi_connect.exe are not being created. Watching for answers.

suggested short-term work arounds:

• older version of visual studio 2022 and don't update for it awhile (probably a month or 3 at least till everybody catches up on MS changes)
• use visual studio 2019 instead, as it still is supported and working at present

This specific checked_array_iterator warning is now fixed in #4812
