Compile error about windows-appsample-photo-editor HOT 3 OPEN

This is a known issue fixed in Windows Insider versions of C++/WinRT, but for now you can apply the following workaround which worked for me.

Modify the compiler options. In Visual Studio Solution Explorer, right-click on the Project file and launch the Properties window. Expand the C/C++ branch and go to the Language node. The second entry from the top is Conformance mode. Set this to Yes (/permissive-). Then select the Command Line node. At the bottom of the window, you'll see a textbox for Additional Options. Add /Zc:twoPhase- and then press the Apply button. Rebuild the project. It should now work fine.

Hi, @techjogger thanks for checking out the sample. The issue you're hitting is a known one and is documented, with other frequent issues, in the docs here. Those docs suggest the following as a solution: Set project property C/C++ > Language > Conformance mode: No (also, if /permissive- appears in project property C/C++ > Language > Command Line under Additional Options, then delete it). Please let us know if that corrects the build error.

Hey @JoshuaPartlow , Thanks for the help! Deleting "/permissive-" from "additional options" solved the build error.
