[QuellaZhang]

Cinder failed to build with /std:c++latest on MSVC. Could you please help look at this issue or provide some workarounds? Thanks in advance.

Build steps:

1. open VC2019 x64 tools command
2. git clone https://github.com/cinder/Cinder F:\gitP\cinder\Cinder
3. mkdir F:\gitP\cinder\Cinder\build_amd64
4. cd F:\gitP\cinder\Cinder\build_amd64
5. cmake -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64 -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION=10.0.18362.0 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCINDER_BUILD_TESTS=ON ..
6. set CL= /std:c++latest
7. msbuild /m /p:Platform=x64 /p:Configuration=Release cinder.sln /t:Rebuild > build.log

Build log: build_stdc++latest.log

Let me know if #2262 addresses what you're seeing

Thanks! These known issues have been fixed. A new error was triggered, this should be the last one.
