## Attributes

There are individual attributes within the attributes files for the URL, checksum, and package name of each Visual C++ runtime major and minor version.

If you wish to install anything except the latest packages, you may set one of

- `node['vcruntime']['vc6']['version']`
- `node['vcruntime']['vc9']['version']`
- `node['vcruntime']['vc10']['version']`
- `node['vcruntime']['vc11']['version']`
- `node['vcruntime']['vc12']['version']`
- `node['vcruntime']['vc14']['version']`

to the appropriate version.

It will install 32 bit version alongside 64bit version on 64bit systems.

### Microsoft Versioning

As of cookbook version `2.0.0`, the version of packages match the version value in `Details` on the installer, to facilitate matching for Inspec tests.

Versions in the same recipe replace prior versions except for Microsoft Visual C++ 2008.
