supported visual studio version

Post by baramuse »

Hi all,

I just want to rule out a few things about visual studio support (completion, identation, etc..)
What is the current stable version supported ?
I have trouble with very basic IDE goddies (like completion of a variable name) and I want to check first the VS version before digging more deeper.

Thanks !

Basile,
VS 2022 should be fine.
But Microsoft has recently made some changes to VS2022 (that were not communicated, unfortunately) that break certain functions in the editor, such as:
- Format Document
- Snippets
- Code completion

Before these options were enabled by default in the Generic Text editor, from which we inherit. All we had to do was to implement them.
Now we have to tell VS that we want to support these opptions explicitely.
We're working on a fix that will be released a few weeks from now (around our Summit)

We are working fine with 17.10. A collegue said that we should not update VS to 17.11 because of some issues with X#.
