Description

Given the last "release" of this was back in 2018, is this a maintained project still? I've tried a Git clone of the current files, and can't seem to get it to compile on VS 2022 17.8 (which has Universal support) or 17.13 (which I guess Universal support is deprecated). Currently, one of the unit tests is failing on a missing "WexTestClass.h" file, and three of the projects aren't loading due to using outdated profiles.

Any guidance from the community or developers would be most appreciated. Thank you.

Research direction

Start with a fresh Git clone and attempt the build in Visual Studio 2022 17.8 and 17.13. Inspect the failing unit test's missing WexTestClass.h reference and the three projects that do not load because of outdated profiles; done means the projects load and the unit tests compile and run.
