I am running the GalaSoft MvvmLight Toolkit MSI installer (GalaSoft.MvvmLight.4.0.23.1.msi) but I do not get any templates or snippets installed.
Need this asap, any quick help is greatly appreciated!
Try the latest version (4.0.23.2). Also, if that does not seem to work you can install the snippets and the templates manually from the latest mvvm light source code (look on the left under the Snippets and Templates folders): http://mvvmlight.codeplex.com/SourceControl/changeset/view/b9bb3f49bb0e
I have installed the latest version 4.1 and there is no template. After the install it says i must install the vsix extension file but i am not to sure where that exists, it does not exist as an extension in the extension library . I can add it by adding the nuget package on a blank win 8 store app but its kinda odd watching all the tutorials and they just create the thing by adding the template. Dont think it makes much different but ...

I am creating an installer. I have a setup project for the same along with a bootstrapper project which consists of all my pre requisites. However, I would like to check if the pre requisites (with the specified version) are already installed in my system, and only if they aren't installed I would like to go ahead for the same. I found few sources online which said that I could use WiXNetFx extension to achieve the same. However in my VS 2022 I am unable to see any such extension. So now I am clueless how to go about with this...
Is the extension no longer in use? If so, is there any other way I could achieve what I want.

Ps the pre requisites I am referring to are .NET Framework 4.8 and Keysight Open TAP
It's still there. In WiX v3, it's ProgramFilesFolder\WiX Toolset v3.11\bin\WixNetFxExtension.dll. In WiX v4, it's WixToolset.Netfx.wixext.
I have a Visual Studio 2010 project which I am converting to Visual Studio 2015.
I have two questions:
The project is currently using AjaxControlToolKit 4.1.60501.0. Should I upgrade it to latest version AjaxControlToolkit 17.1.1? Would there be any coding changes?
I created a sample project and installed AjaxControlToolkit 17.1.1 from Nuget package. I see it in references and also all the Ajax controls in toolbox. However, I do not see ToolKitScriptManager. I also tried to install using exe from DevExpress etc. but still don't find ToolKitScriptManager.
Please guide how to get it.
It really depends on your needs and your project structure.
We have upgrade guide for old versions: https://github.com/DevExpress/AjaxControlToolkit/wiki/Upgrading-from-v7.x-and-below
You can get to know from there, that ToolkitScriptManager is removed, so you need to replace it with standard ASP.NET ScriptManager.
If you use AjaxFileUpload in your project, it's strongly advised to upgrade it to the latest version, because v17.1.1 contains major security fixes.
As a general rule, we advise you to use the latest version of the toolkit, because we can not deliver bug fixes and improvements to the old versions.
I am new in Point Cloud Library and I would like to know how can I install it on my computer. I have already installed PCL 1.6.0 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 but I can't manage to use PCL. I understand that I am supposed to set references at some point but I am totally clueless as how and when I should do it.
I have been trying to follow the instructions at http://unanancyowen.com/?p=1255&lang=en but when I get to :
Set the environment variable for PCL and 3rdParty.
Variable Name Variable Value
PCL_ROOT C:\Program Files\PCL 1.7.2(or C:\Program Files (x86)\PCL 1.7.2)
Path ;%PCL_ROOT%\bin
;%PCL_ROOT%\3rdParty\FLANN\bin
;%PCL_ROOT%\3rdParty\VTK\bin
I am totally lost...
I have never used neither Visual Studio nor PCL before.
I am using windows7 64bits
If you could hint me in the right direction or direct me to a tutorial that I could understand, that would be very helpfull !!
Thanks in advance!
Your PCL version is not right...I use PCL 1.7.2 and VS2012 on Win8.1, and it's the same on win7.
Look at this tutorial(It's in chinese and you can use google translate, I follow it and succeed to run PCL1.7.2 on my VS2012):
I used the website you mentioned to install pcl in my computer. And it works just fine. And quite detailed compared to other tutorials. From your question, I understand that you have trouble adding the path to the environment variables. If thats not what you are having trouble with, let me know.
The environment variable helps the visual studio compiler to find the paths to PCL libraries during run time. So, after installing PCL, we need to tell the computer where we have installed pcl and pcl bin files and the supporting 3rd party libraries. You do that by editing the path.
As for how to set the environment variable, go through this tutorial: http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000549.htm
I started learning C# a week ago. Today I was trying to install the System.Data.SQLite plugin or whatever that is from this page of the SQLite offical website.
But after I installed it I couldn't see it in:Project->Add Reference->.NET[tab].
I am using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. I really need to make the integration with SQLite for my application.
Thanks a lot.

During setup, have you ticked the checkbox that said something like "Install assemblies into global assembly cache"? I believe it is unchecked by default.
Try referencing the library using the Browse tab instead if you can't find it in the GAC.
I want to perform a .NET CF 2.0 build using VS2010. I know it's not supported "normnally," but I've seen this answer: ( .NET Compact Framework with Visual Studio 2010? ) ...and I want to use that approach.
The blog post cited there says I need to modify the .csproj files for the .NET CF projects, to point to a particular Microsoft.CompactFramework.Common.targets . But I don't have that file.
I figured I needed to install the Windows Mobile 6 Standard SDK to get it.
I tried installing it and get this:
I have seen this question:
Windows Mobile 6 Standard SDK Refresh install issue on Visual Studio 2010 Professional Beta 2
I don't think the solution proposed there is workable for me. I do not have VS2008. I do not have VS2005. I have only VS2010, and I have no installable media for those other products.
I have also tried the administrative install (msiexec /a), but the resulting directory structure doesn't contain any files like Microsoft.CompactFramework.Common.targets .??
Q1:
Is there a way for me to install WM6 Standard SDK?
Q2: Anyone know the reg key that it looks for to determine if I have the appropriate pre-reqs?
Is this going to work if I just fiddle with my registry?
Q3: Is my assumption wrong? Really I want the Microsoft.CompactFramework.Common.targets file and its friends. Where can I get this? (I have no existing VS2008 machine to suck from)
Q4: Another approach I can think of is getting an eval version of VS2008, installing that into a VM, then installing the WM6 Std SDK there, then grabbing the Microsoft.CompactFramework.Common.targets file from that. Long way round. Is this gonna work and is it worth the trouble?
ANSWER
Here's the answer.
It is possible to build CF apps with VS2010, as outlined in Joel Fjorden's blog post. There are pre-requisites you need, in order to make this happen.
I believe the only official way to get the required files, including Microsoft.CompactFramework.Common.targets , Microsoft.CompactFramework.CSharp.targets , Microsoft.CompactFramework.VisualBasic.targets and Microsoft.CompactFramework.Build.Tasks.dll , is to install the related version of Visual Studio. These files are all version-specific, so to get the files for building for .NET CF 2.0, you need to install VS2005, and for .NET CF 3.5 you need to install VS2008. Installing VS2010 gives you neither. It works to use eval versions of the tools. It worked for me anyway.
If you are willing to go custom, you can simply copy these files from a working installation of VS2005 or VS2008 (or both), into the appropriate .NET directory, usually something like C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727 (change the version as appropriate). Chris Tacke has helpfully posted a link to the files you need. I don't know if copying these files violates the license for VS20?? , I am not a licensing expert.
You cannot get these files from the Windows Mobile SDK, as far as I can tell. Even so, you might still want a version-specific mobile SDK to get the emulators and skins and so on.
This is a basic "build" capability. It works but it doesn't give you designer support, debugging capability, built-in project templates, and so on. My advice to anyone who wants to do forward development on .NET CF is to use the tools that are geared toward those tasks - VS2005 or VS2008.
Thanks to Chris Tacke for posting a link for the files.
Not sure if it's any help, but the CF targets files from VS2008 can be found here. Let us know if you make any progress.
The "Power Toys for .NET Compact Framework" package (currently found at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13442) also contains the required files.
Thought I'd leave that here since it's an official Microsoft download.
