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.
Best Regards,
Me
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 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'm trying to add ClosedXML and iText7 to my .NETCore project for school. But every single time I try to install these packages I get the same error:
One or more packages are incompatible with .NETCoreApp,Version=v1.1.
Does anyone know a solution for this problem? I work with Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise Edition. Or does anybody has a suggestion to generate Excels and pdfs with .NET Core?
https://www.nuget.org/packages/ClosedXML
As you can see, ClosedXML depends on .NETFramework 4.0.
http://www.dotnetcurry.com/dotnet/1308/dotnet-core-future-of-dotnet-framework
Right-click on the startup project and click properties. In the application tab, click the Target framework dropdown and .NET Framework >= 4.5. You will lose the cross platform compatibility.
I personally haven't found an ideal export/import solution for excel files but maybe this might work for you: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Shaman.EPPlus/
Background:
According to the documentation at http://aspnetwebstack.codeplex.com/documentation (under 'Getting and Building the Code' the very first item says:
The easiest way to work with our source is to install Visual Studio 2010 (with SP1).
I am running VS2010 SP1 and have managed to follow all of the instructions to get this source code up and running (on my Win7 64 bit machine). I am have the .NET 4.5 framework installed.
Problem:
During the build (from the command line) as well as from Visual Studio itself, I get the following error:
"The project file 'MY_LOCAL_PATH\src\System.Net.Http.Formatting.NetCore\System.Net.Http.Formatting.NetCore.csproj' cannot be opened. The project type is not supported."
Does anyone know how to get this project to load? All of the others in the Runtime.sln load fine.
UPDATE:
The two project type guids that are in the project file (csproj) are BC8A1FFA-BEE3-4634-8014-F334798102B3 and FAE04EC0-301F-11D3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC. The first has something to with Metro and the other is C#. I could understand the metro hangup but again the documentation says VS2010 SP1 is fine.
As documented here, the solution now requires VS2012 and Windows 8. I'll update the documentation Wiki accordingly.
I have emailed a few people as well as this post to no avail. Looking more into this and my best guess is that because of the Metro project type I am going to need to get Windows 8 to get this to work. The MVC project does build regardless of this project so I am going to say this is the answer.
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 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.
