I am trying to find a LINQ to SQL visualizer for Visual Studio 2010.
Anybody know of one somewhere?
When i was using vs 2008 i used this one.
But with vs 2010 it does not work.
I tried this one, but it didn't work either!
Is there a visual studio 2010 visualizer for Linq to SQL ?? thanks
The tools must be integrated in vs 2010.
After research i found this article and they talk we need to recompile the linq-to-sql visualizer with vs 2010 dll reference, and it's working very nicely.
So there is the solutions
Moreover while this meta language can express things more concisely, I guess they’ll be a range of scenarios where I’ll prefer to keep using C# 2008 Samples Expression Tree Visualizer (Expression Tree visualization through a Windows Form Tree) or Manuel Abadia Linq Expression Debugger Visualizer (Expression tree visualization through a graph). I noticed that both these addin doesn’t work as-is on VS 2010 and the trick I wanted to share here is that, to use them under VS 2010, you just need to recompile them by referencing the VS 2010 assembly Microsoft.VisualStudio.DebuggerVisualizers.dll (found in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\ReferenceAssemblies\v2.0\Microsoft.VisualStudio.DebuggerVisualizers.dll) instead of the VS 2008 assembly with the same name. This works like a charm with the C# 2008 Samples Expression Tree Visualize used in VS 2010 on .NET 4 and .NET 3.5 projects. I expect the same good result with the Manuel Abadia piece of code (but source code is not available here so I couldn’t recompile, Manuel can you do that?).
Have you tried LINQpad?

I installed Visual Studio 2013 Community edition with C++. Now I want to use it to program in C#. The problem is VS will not let me create C# files, only C++ files. How do I correct this?
Bonus points if you can answer this question: Why does Google provide no relevant results when I try and search for it in several different wordings?
When was MSTest officially introduced? Was it out there before Visual Studio 2005? Could MSTest be used with VS2002/2003?
On Wikipedia it was very short and said created in Visual Studio 2005 but didn't seem official. I tried googling/binging deeper and couldn't find an exact answer.
It came out with VS 2005. I don't believe it would work with pre VS 2005 boxes.
However, you probably could use NUnit....
I want to do so because intellisense option for clr console application is not working in visual studio 2010..
Yes, you can. They will run side by side.
However, if you have professional installed, wouldn't it be better to update the install and add c++ to it?
There is no Intellisense support for C++/CLI in Visual Studio 2010 (including in SP1 and the Express edition).
I've been using Visual Assist X from Whole Tomato software for the last few weeks and am very happy with their Intellisense support. From the research I did, it appears that theirs is about the best going (Resharper for example does not support C++).
No, this is not going to solve your problem. The IntelliSense parser is exactly the same in the Express edition, it also doesn't support parsing C++/CLI code. You'll need to find the installer for the VS2008 Express edition. That's going to be quite difficult, you cannot get it from Microsoft anymore. Or you'll have to bear and grin it until the next version for Visual Studio, the Microsoft team promised it will be supported again.
Do keep in mind that you are not writing C++ code, C++/CLI is a very distinct language. There isn't much point in writing complete console mode apps in C++/CLI, you might as well use C#. There's an Express edition for that as well, IntelliSense works.
If Visual Studio includes Visual Basic, why can't I open a VB 6.0 file in Visual Studio 2010?
Because there's a difference between Visual Basic 6.0 and Visual Basic .NET which is what Visual Studio 2010 includes.
Darin is basically right but omits an important detail.
There's a difference between VB6 and VB.Net, and Visual Studio 2010 includes VB.Net
Earlier versions of VB.Net included an upgrade wizard to help convert VB6 code to VB.Net. This was dropped in Visual Studion 2010. You might want to use Visual Studio 2008 to help upgrade your VB6 to VB.Net, and then migrate to Visual Studio 2010 later. Upgrading VB6 to VB.Net can be a large task.
That's correct. I upgrade to 2008 then to 2010. You have to run the installed program from vb6 first then it will upgrade. You might have terminal failures from unfound assemblies. Go into the .vb form file with a text editor. REM out any failed to load assemblies from the fail report. Then you can re-write the VB code for code errors as the lingo changed. Next upgrade to vb 2010 using that wizard and re-write for new lingo again.
Form sizes are converted to vb6. in 2008, then that is scrapped in 2010, don't re-write that in 2008, if you're upgrading right away, you'll have to re-write in 2010 anyway.
Common file open/save/browse/color/font routines become vb powerpacks 10 which you load with your vb 2010 assembly. You have to re-insert the new common assemblies into the form from the toolbox and re-work the code. There's a bunch of stuff there, but it is do-able.
I have not used VS 2010, but based on my readings, the latest VB is effectively a new language altogether. Since introduction of VB .NET, VB 6.0 has become a stagnant language.
Are there any decent tutorials for setting up F# in Visual Studio 2005? Everything I have found points at VS2008.
ie: 'F# projects' under projects, etc.
Unfortunately the CTP release of F# doesn't support VS 2005. Two options:
Use 1.9.4.19, the most recent pre-CTP release
Download the free VS2008 shell and use that instead (I haven't tried it, but apparently it works)

That page also links to Don Syme's F# blog, which has a lot of useful stuff on working with F# in VS, including a demo of F# intellisense in VS2005.
