How To Install Platform Deck
Solved How to compile using microsoft visual. To build using the v110 build tools, please install Visual Studio. Changing Platform Toolset to 'v120' (was 'v110').
How To Install Platform Tools
We have a Visual Studio solution that contains some VC++ projects, and we've currently upgraded to Visual Studio 2012 from VS2010. In the process we also lifted the VC++ projects to PlatformToolset v110.
On our build server (Jenkins), we would like to build this project with MsBuild without having to install VS2012. But I can't get it to work, and I think it's because the folder C:Program Files (x86)MSBuildMicrosoft.Cppv4.0V110 must be present.
This folder and its contents is created during installation of VS2012, but as far as I can tell it won't be included in either the Windows SDK 7.1 or Windows SDK 8.0?
Is there any other SDK or installation package that can help with this issue?

I know it's not really without installing Visual Studio 2012, but:
If licensing costs are the biggest driver perhaps the Express for Windows Desktop edition could be an alternative. You could keep the installation to the minimum required to support C++ builds.
