Compiler Error with vs2017
Hello, I tried to complie Mitsuba using vs2017, but got 2 errors when it came to "simply run scons" step.
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State

I changed all private members of 'scalar_property_definition_callbacks_type' and 'list_property_definition_callbacks_type' in ply_parser.hpp into public, making project build succeed, which was quiet ugly. It seems that template class 'inherit2' in file inherit.hpp accesses some private member of the two type above. How can I fix it more correctly?
What is the workaround? in the build directory the aren't conf files for other versions of VS.
Ok, it looks that I just had to update Visual Studio. Then it compiled fine
Now it's crashing on start up.
