Visual Studio 2022 builds and runs UE5.0

Hi @MikeSeese,
In my original post for UE50EA,
someone had asked for the patches for VS2022 UE5EA
This is not the default branch anymore
so

“git clone https://github.com/jimshalo10/UnrealEngine-5.git -b ue5EA-vs2022"

In fact, each of these is prefaced by the search pattern “@V2022
and can be found with the command with the Git Bash command

git grep -r -n --after=1 -i “@Vs2022” – . > Vs2022patches2.txt

You might need two minuses to indicate the dot is a file path.

The sample output is as follows

Engine/Plugins/Developer/VisualStudioCodeSourceCodeAccess/Source/VisualStudioCodeSourceCodeAccess/VisualStudioCodeSourceCodeAccess.Build.cs:32: case WindowsCompiler.VisualStudio2022: //@VS2022 support added

This was developing software and contains numerous statements about compilers.
I cannot see the reason for this as it’s now embedded in the recent repositories from Epic. I have left this because it shows the development and learning path for others.

If you need VS2022 to build prior versions like 4.26 then just keep only VS2022, don’t enable VS2019 or other versions, and the prior version will build.
