- Some “.NET-Exceptions” can now only be caught with __try __except
- /GS checks might decrease performance
- Project files are automatically converted to the new .vcxproj
- CRT/MFC/ATL/OpenMP-DLLs no longer use fusion (huray!); it uses plan old dll-hell
- Support for environmentvariable __MSVCRT_HEAP_SELECT was removed
- New _ITERATOR_DEBUG_LEVEL macro (replaces _SECURE_SCL and _HAS_ITERATOR_DEBUGGING)
- hash_map and hash_set are now in the std namespace (previously in stdext)
