Redmine + Mercurial + Visual Studio 2010 - visual-studio-2010

Is there an Issue Tracker plugin for Visual Studio 2010 to link tasks/bugs to specific issues existing in redmine project?

Unfortunately it doesn't look like there is a Visual Studio plugin for Redmine at present, although I did find a couple of posts on the Redmine forums:
any interest in a visual studio plugin to view redmine issues?
i've started working on one for myself. is anyone interested and, if you are, do you have any feature suggestions?
Later:
i've actually already started work on something and gotten a decent amount done. I'll post it for download soon maybe! Any feature suggestions?
However, the last post was seven months ago, and there are no further posts from that user.

I've created an extension to display Redmine issues as tasks in Visual Studio Task List. Source code and the latest VSIX can be found at http://redminetasklist.codeplex.com

Xamarin - The name 'Resource' does not exist in the current context

I've googled till I'm blue in the fingers trying to find a resolution to this issue. I've tried several things but nothing helps. I've got Xamarin and Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise. I had everything working on a previous PC a few months back. Now I have a new one and am just now getting Xamarin set up. I have a few demo and self hacked solutions I was working with. Now all of them give me the above error message. I've made sure the namespace is correct in all modules. The solutions are really small. Nothing fancy at all. Basically Hello World stuff so I'm at a failure to figure out why it fails now. Case in Point: The Hello World that is failing is one HelloWorld.cs file and a few PNGs in the Resources tree along with a main.xml.
If anyone could shed some light I would be most grateful.
I just updated (through VS) Xamarin. Now the older solutions I had won't load. If I create a new solution, I've got the same Resource does not exist error. Xamarin appears to be broken. I've worked with it in the past and had no problems like these.
I resolved it. My Xamarin version was not updated. I updated it by going to
Programs & Features => Microsoft Visual Studio Enterprise 2015, click on change/modify. Now in Visual Studio Popup under Cross Platform Mobile Developement update the C#/.NET (Xamarin v__). After updating this error gets resolved.
For me I didn't required to install Visual Studio 2017.
Also Thanks Martin for your suggestion, your answer can also workaround but it is not necessary to install 2017 just need to upgrade Xamarin version to work with VS 2015.
This bug currently arises with Visual Studio 2015. See this thread and this thread on the Xamarin Forums. Apparently the only workarounds now is to install Visual Studio 2017 or downgrade to older version of Xamarin. There is also an opened bug report for this, so it hopefully should get resolved soon.

Visual Studio 2015 "...has stopped working" when trying to install

Trying to install 'Visual Studio 2015 with Update 3' using the .exe installer provided for the visualstudio.com website. I also tried the standard version (without the update).
The black/grey installer opens, the green bar moves along the progress bar once and it crashes. I get a white pop-up window saying 'Microsoft Visual Studio Community with Updates has stopped working'.
I can't seem to find any other situations like mine on Google or StackOverflow.
I have Visual Studio 2017 also installed. Why do I need 2015 too? I'm helping (trying) another student who is using VS2015 and has problems - however, I can't even get it downloaded!
Thanks in advance for any help.
One possible solution is to not worry about 2015 and just help him by using 2017. It's hard to tell for sure if this will resolve your issue, as there is not info on exactly what you are trying to help him with.
If you go this route, I would save out the solution file just after loading it with _vs2017 tacked on the end, or something similar, so that you do not overwrite the info in his solution file. (Edit: The purpose of this is just in case it breaks something for him - it may not be a problem, he may be able to load your 2017 solution file fine). I've moved fluidly between 2017 Community and 2015 Express or Community with some solutions without a problem.
I do realize there are some issues that this may not be a solution for, but it should be an option, especially for those that are more language-based. The main problems with this solution would be if other student is using features or libraries that are deprecated in 2017, or directly struggling with getting VS 2015 features to work.
Go to control Panel -> Programs and features -> turn on windows features ,
Disable .net 3.5
check for windows update,
Then restart the system. Now it will work . 100% working .
Have fun.

Visual Studio 2017 add item cross-platform missing

I have installed Visual Studio 2017 to follow along with online training for Xamarin created in May. They instructed us to add a new item and then selected Cross-Platform.
I did not have Cross-Platform as an option. I found a post for an older version of Visual Studio where they showed how to add it manually. I did this and it created the Cross-Platform item but this only contained four options instead of the ten in the video.
Has this been taken away in a newer release or do I need to do something to add all the items?
Many thanks
I have finally found a solution. I used the Visual Studio uninstaller to uninstall Mobile Development with .Net, rebooted and then installed it again. Works like a charm. There must have been old versions that were not getting updated or something was corrupt. Hope this helps someone.

How to download latest patch to Visual Studio

Many users reported problem with debugging in Visual Studio after Update 2, guys from Visual Studio fix this issue 11/4/2016 in version 14.025126.03. Whitch is nice!
But, how can I download this patch? It's 10 days!
Edit: Guys from VS team send email after voting in "Report a Problem...", but they send it with typo, 14.025126.03 should be 14.0.25126.03, as Kanavos refer; so I wasn't able to find it on Google and it's my source of confuse.
Here is link to MSDN with update.

Visual Studio hangs downloading Cordova Geolocation plugin

I have created a Cordova project in Visual Studio 2015. By using cordova --version on my project folder, I could see that I am using Cordova 4.2.0.
Next thing I wanted to do is installing Geolocation plugin. So I did this by editing `config.xml via VS UI. The problem is that, once I hit, "Add", VS hangs.
It stays in this condition forever.
Please note
I spotted other questions about people not being able to download the same plugin, but that was not VS hanging, it was VS reporting an error. The reported error should have been fixed.
FYI I installed VS2015 Enterprise (full installation).
It looks like it just takes a lot of time! I left Visual Studio in that state for 4 hours. And now I have the plug-in downloaded and everything is fine!
It is pretty strange though. My network was fine and up during all the time. However it might be some network issue concerning me. Unfortunately hard to say.
So basically the procedure is fine. If anybody else runs into this again, then i think Visual Studio is having troubles downloading these plug-ins.
