I started experimenting with the Windows Implementation Libraries (WIL). I know that VS2022 and earlier versions through VS2015 default to C++ 14 and I'm wondering if WIL contains any requirement for more recent C++ standards (C++20, C++17)? So far I haven't stumbled across any problems leaving the default setting but my experimentation is just beginning.
