I guess it is related to the complier version. Since not many people create their own plugin materials, I am not sure which version of Visual Studio is supported. What I found is like this:

  • For versions of FDTD up to the 2016b release, use Visual Studio 2008
  • For versions of FDTD from the 2017a release onwards, use Visual Studio 2013
