It is C++ compiler version problem? How do I change the c++ version?

Setting --std=c++11 or --std=c++20 is invalid

~Does --msvs_version=2022 have any effect?~

[beijing-penguin]

Does --msvs_version=2022 have any effect?

[beijing-penguin]

@cclauss i have an important discovery....eg image: (PVOID)str.data()

and run cmd : node-gyp configure rebuild is succeed compile

but I don't understand why my virtual_output.h file (before modification) can compile succeed with vs2022 , c++20 , when i use 'node-gyp configure rebuild ' is not ok.(i try binding.gyp set --std=c++20 or --msvs_version=2022 ,is all not ok)..

[beijing-penguin]

At present, I don't know how to get node-gyp to compile in c++20

[StefanStojanovic]

This issue seems no longer relevant as it uses a no longer supported version of Node and has been stale for a long time. If there are no objections, I will close this issue next Mon-Tue. In case something similar happens again please open a new issue.
