Realm support for Windows Server

[MihirLuthra]

I wanted to use Realm (via C++ SDK) on Windows Server. Are the supported versions known for that?

Could only find compatibility matrix for dotnet SDK (https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/device-sdks/sdk/dotnet/compatibility/) but that also doesn't mention about Windows Server.

EDIT: I just see that the above link is for SDK compatibility. I meant runtime compatibility instead.

C++ SDK has nothing to do with the dotNet SDK, you can use the C++ SDK on any supported C++ compiler which includes MSVC. So it should work on any recent windows OS.

@galacticfungus my wording may not have been correct. My ask is about runtime support. Like, if realm uses any APIs that won't be supported on certain versions of Windows servers.

@MihirLuthra Run time support is mostly tied to having the latest MSVC runtime libraries installed it. All of the libraries that realm uses are header only as far as I know so it should compile and run fine. Best way is to just try and compile the realm SDK. I don't think there are any API differences between the operating systems anymore, mostly just hardware support is better on the servers, I am no expert though.

Nothing really to solve here. Best to just try it.
