Is this extension going to be updated for VS 2012?

That is the plan. I haven't had time to look into it yet - so feel free to create a VS2012 branch and work on it. If not I will try to port it to VS2012 later this fall.

Hi Jonas,

My experience with VS Extensions and with Git is pretty much nil, but I might look into it if I get some time. I’m presuming it needs a new project but the code should mostly copy over – I will play around and see what I can come up with.

I published a "quick and dirty" upgrade to the extension that works in VS2012, or at least it works on my machine for my purposes. It is not to be intended as "final" solution, I just needed a quick solution and this works for me.

You need to download the Visual Studio 2010 / 2012 SDK - which adds the
project type needed to develop VS add-ins.

Also wondered if anyone else was having problems with TargetFrameworkAttributeAttribute since installing VS2012

I've had to resort to adding this hack to my project files to keep them compiling:

is anyone having the issue where visual studio complains about the v1.0 framework not being installed, even though they copied in the MonoTouch assemblies to the /.NETFramework/v1.0/ folder, added the /RedistList/ folder and the FrameworkList.xml file? for some reason, i can't get it to work in windows 8, but it worked fine in windows 7.

I did but only because I had VS running when I created the ref libs. I
checked it again after a reboot and it is now working fine.

Since installing the VS2012 plugin lots of my operations have been really slow - especially in the larger mvvmcross solutions - e.g. creating a new Wpf project this morning took over 10 minutes :(

Anyone got any ideas what might be causing this? Or on what trace to enable to try to find out?

Any suggestions welcome. Thanks!

theperm commented Dec 14, 2012

Well, I get this from time to time, but it was before I installed the
extension. My suggestion is to disable the extension to see if it is the
cause, if not disable extensions one by and use a process of elimination
to see if the cause is an extension.

I have seen this before and have no explanation as to why it occurs,
because ive never been able to reproduce itintentionally. I do think my
VS2012 is no where as fast as it was when I first installedit, but then
it could be psychological, you get used to the speed, then it feels
slowagain.

Hey bryancostanich!

I solved my problem updating mono for android.
On VS2012, goto Tools -> Options -> Mono for Android, and then check for updates.

Hope it helps!

The slow loading for mvx with vsmonotouch seems to be something to do with http://twitpic.com/bpmxk3

(from Oren on twitter)

anyone got any ideas what this might be? Or how to work around it?

I'm back on code tomorrow and will try 'stuff' until it works or until next year arrives...

Hi,

In my installation i have a lot of "strange" project's type.

First of all - it's great to see that so many people find the VSMonoTouch project type useful - and is actively contributing in resolving issues etc 👍

I tried to look at the branch list - and there are several branches at different level. It would be great if some of you who has a reasonable stable branch with VS2012 support would issue a pull request to get the main branch updated.

I would also like some input weather or not we should simply tag the current head of the repo as VS2010, and make the master a VS2012 project type going forward - or should we try to support both VS2010 and VS2012? My gut feeling is that most MonoTouch developers are pretty "forward leaning" and is using the most current versions of VS. But please voice opinions to what you think.

Sorry for not taking an more active role in the project - but have been soaked in non MonoTouch work lately - but now it looks like I will be doing some MonoTouch again, so I would like to get an official built with updated documentation for VS2012 out the door.

I'd highly suggest supporting both VS2010 and VS2012. Thanks!

Okay, no need to break backwards compatibility. So we'll keep VS2010 supported, but only support development in VS2012 (but the built extension will work in both 2010 and 2012). It is possible to maintain two sets of project and solution files to enable development on the extension in both 2010 and 2012, but I do not think it is worth the effort supporting both (development mode).

Development of VS2012 support is happening in the vs2012 branch.

With VS2012 Ultimate and VS2012 SDK, I am unable to compile this branch...see screenshot:

Am I missing something obvious?

Also, the downloadable .vsix file from this branch's readme appears to be the version for 2010...at least, it has the same filename, and throws the "not compatible" error when attempting to install:
