Gavin commented on INFRA-6717:
------------------------------

Visual Studio 2013 requires a new version of Windows than is installed on Windows1.

Catch 22

We are required to upgrade to Windows 2008 R2 or later to achieve goal of this ticket.

If we want later than that, we must also upgrade vmware to be compatible with winserver2012 etc.

> At the moment Visual Studio 2008 is installed on windows1 jenkins slave.
> Is it possible to install a newer version of VS like 2010 or 2012?
> Our issue at the moment is that our build relies on a C99 compiler, but Visual Studio 2008 isn't C99 compatible.
> We could do a workaround, but IMO it would be good to have a state of the art VS on one of our Apache build slaves.
> Thank you very much!
