Hi all!
We are currently setting up our build infrastructure newly after a security incident and I have a question concerning the licensing of Visual Studio 2019 on build machines.
We are a big company and cannot use the cheaper VisualStudio licenses and we are aware that every developer using Visual Studio has to be licensed.
We now set up the build machines and as we also have to install Visual Studio 2019 for our CEF Builds (and other native builds for our product) we would have to provide licenses for each and every build server we have (as we always are currently installing the IDE).
Is this really necessary? Do we really have to install the IDE and could we save some licences if we only install the build tools with the needed packages like C++ desktop and MFC/ATL?
Thx for the answers in advance!
