Consuming Visual studio extension SDKs in a remote build (CI).

Hi All,
I am new to .NET and developing an universal Windows application.
I am using Visual Studio extension for SQLite for WinRT and Windows Phone.
http://www.sqlite.org/2015/sqlite-wp81-winrt-3080801.vsix
http://www.sqlite.org/2015/sqlite-winrt81-3080801.vsix
I can perfectly install the extensions and work with locally.
My question is about the remotely building (continuous integration) of my application through msbuild in TFS.
Does the build machines need to have the same version of SQLite SDKs installed manually in order to resolve the dependency ?
There can be multiple project in my TFS collection which can refer to separate version of VSIX files . Both versions can not co exist together. What happens then ?
Can I somehow upload the vsix file to our package management software (Nexus) and refer from there.
We have been building other dependencies as Nuget packages from Nexus.
There might be number of packages required for different architecture and other component's packages.
Any help will be hugely appreciated.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Saurav

Hello Saurav,
Welcome to the MSDN forum.
The dependency problem should depending on your MSBuild process in my mind. I'm not sure how you will load your dependency about SQLite on your remote machine. Please share more details about it. If the build process actually need the load the dependency
in the remote environment, I'm afraid you have to install it on the remote machine.
For the question"There can be multiple project in my TFS collection which can refer to separate version of VSIX files . Both versions can not co exist together", I think it's better for you to consult TFS forum since I'm not familar with TFS scenarios:

I can't not find the way to uninstall the extension.
Do I use this command to install is correct? And please suggest me the way to unInstall the extension by PowerShell script.
Thank

Hi Bruce,
In addition, Since I'm not familar the VSIX, however, to uninstall package with powershell, these cmdlets are for your reference:
Removes an app package (.appx): Remove-AppxPackage
To get the installed package :
Get-AppxPackage
Or if you want to uninstall app listed in 'Add or Remove Programs', please also check this script:
$app = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object {
$_.Name -match "Software Name"
$app.Uninstall()
If there is anything regarding this script, please feel free to post back.

Trouble Setting up Visual Studio 2010 SDK

Hello,
I am having trouble finding iostream.h in my include statement. My path's are not set right. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling VS2010 but no luck. Can someone this help me with this? I am shut down until I get this sorted out.
Gratefully,
Russ

Your compiler command line should include a header file searching path like /I "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\include". (your visual studio install location may vary)
This should be done automatically if you created a new project using the Visual C++ project templates. If the assert.h file is not in the include folder, ask at the visual studio setup forum.

??? SDK 9.1 only support visual studio 2005? SDK XI only support visual studio 2010? I thought that adobe is a top product that uses the latest technology? Am I wrong?
I want to develop a plugin for adobe acrobat 9+10+11 do I need “SDK 9.1 and Visual studio 2005” +“SDK 10 and Visual studio 2008” +“SDK 11 and Visual studio 2010”
Can’t I develop this plugin with visual studio 2013?

The SDK is produced when the version of Acrobat is released, so if you insist on using obsolete SDKs for obsolete Acrobat you can hardly criticise the Acrobat 9 SDK for being out of date.
To develop for Acrobat 9 (obsolete)+10+11 you can use the Acrobat 9 SDK but it may require some work and expertise to get it to work in all versions. Get the other SDKs for reference.

Visual Studio takes long time to start up

When starting Visual Studio on my machine it used to take a few seconds to start up and be ready to either open or create a new project. Recently however I am finding that it is hanging - stuck on "Updating the News Channel" and "Connecting
to " Visual studio Online. It remains unresponsive until these actions are completed. I have a fast internet connection and a fast computer with solid state drive. I have not experienced any issues browsing using IE or using other applications.
Is there any suggestion that can help improve this situation?

Hi Sal_S,
>>Recently however I am finding that it is hanging - stuck on "Updating the News Channel" and "Connecting to " Visual studio Online. It remains unresponsive until these actions are completed.
What does "Updating the news Channel" mean? You mean that open the VS IDE, and then some links or videos showed in the start page.
Maybe you could change some settings in your VS IDE under TOOLS->Options.
As you said that the VS hanging when it connected to VSO, one idea is that you could post an issue to the VSO forum:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/home?forum=TFService
In addition, for the performance issue, we would think about many elements.
For example, the machine configurations, run the VS for a long time(we often restart the VS), the temp files(clean them), or the add-ins or extension tools (you could disable them), the third party processes in your task manager which make the CPU is high
or others.

Can't Debug Cloud Service w/Visual Studio

I have used the instructions on the following link to no avail. Trying to debug a web application.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff683670.aspx#BK_Debugging_Cloud_Azure
I am using SDK version 2.3 with Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate.
Yes, remote debugging is turned on.
Yes, project is compiled in Debug mode.
When I attach debugger the default process that comes up selected is "clouddrivesvc.exe". When I attach the process is debugging in Native mode. So I'm guessing this is not the right process to attach to. Based on the screen shots
in the aforementioned link I have tried attaching to "WallSHost.exe", this doesn't work either though. I'm assuming I must be attaching to the wrong process. Instructions state that the correct process should be selected by default...?

Hi,
The debugger automatically attaches to the appropriate host process for your role. Depending on what the role is, the debugger attaches to w3wp.exe, WaWorkerHost.exe, or WaIISHost.exe. To verify the process to which the debugger is attached, expand the instance
node in Server Explorer.

How do you retrieve the list of intellisense completions created by Visual Studio

Hello All,
I have a Visual Studio extension that provides statement completion (Intellisense). I build a series of Completions that are then provided to the customer. However, in my list of completions I would like to provide all variables of a certain type. In the
default (All) intellisense list provided by Visual Studio, a user has access to all the completions representing these variables that are available in the editor.
Is there any sort of interface or method to retrieve this information so I can provide a merged list of Completions in my StatementCompletion list? I would like to avoid needing to scrape the text of the file currently being edited as Visual Studio has already
done the work for me and has a better sense of what is available based on the language currently being edited.
Thank you for all your help.
Sincerely,
Dirk Dubois

Hello shawnzkz,
Thank you for the response. Based on what I read in the StackOverflow posts, it looks like there is no formal interface to retrieve information about variables and other Completions built by Visual Studio. Is there a place I can log a feature request for
the Visual Studio SDK? I think this sort of interface would add a lot of value for customers attempting to append the existing intellisense features of Visual Studio.
Thanks for all your help,
Dirk

Excel interop. error with Visual Studio 2012

I am using a stand alone and not a server loaded with VS and office 10, I have done all the interop and importing name space and from my experience that should not be a problem.
Just help, how is this finally resolved, have you done an article on it?
Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {00024500-000-000-C00000000046}
failed due to the following error:
80004023 A Microsoft software installer error was encountered.(exception from HRESULT:0x80004023)
Please help

Hi,
>>The reason this is the right forum is that we are talking about preserving COM and hooking up these libraries
into the managed environment using Interoperation.
I will clarify the topic of this forum. This forum is discussion questions about visual studio extension such as the VSPackage, Add-in and so on. And according to your second reply
"By the way am getting this error while sending data from VS 2012 to Excel"
and your original post, that forum is the correct one. General Office Development forum is for office
developer or related with office development. Your problem is related with excel, in other word, Microsoft office.
And the
General
Office Development forum is for general Office Developer discussions and questions that are either non-application specific
and/or are not specific to one of the product specific forums in this category.
I have consulted the engineer there to ensure it is a case there.
Please feel free to let me know if I misunderstand you.
Thank you for your understanding!

Visual Studio Integrate REST Api - WIQL request returns status 400 (Bad Request)

Hi,
I'm attempting to submit a WIQL (Work Item Query Language) request to the Visual Studio Online REST api but receiving a status code 400 (Bad Request).
I'm using the sample request of the first example "Run a query" of the reference documentation listed here: http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/integrate/reference/reference-vso-work-item-wiql-vsi
I've taken the sample request: https://fabrikam.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection/Fabrikam-Fiber-Git/_apis/wit/wiql?api-version=1.0-preview.2 and substituted "fabrikam" with our account and "Fabrikam-Fiber-Git" with our team project
name.
I've used the exact same query listed for the sample request:
"query": "Select [System.WorkItemType],[System.Title],[System.State],[Microsoft.VSTS.Scheduling.Effort],[System.IterationPath] FROM WorkItemLinks WHERE Source.[System.WorkItemType] IN GROUP 'Microsoft.RequirementCategory' AND Target.[System.WorkItemType]
IN GROUP 'Microsoft.RequirementCategory' AND Target.[System.State] IN ('New','Approved','Committed') AND [System.Links.LinkType] = 'System.LinkTypes.Hierarchy-Forward' ORDER BY [Microsoft.VSTS.Common.BacklogPriority] ASC,[System.Id] ASC MODE (Recursive, ReturnMatchingChildren)"
Couple of things that I've tried:
1. I've tried both "api-version=1.0-preview.2" and "api-version=1.0-preview.1"
2. I've left out the project name from the request url: Based on the query format listed in the example "https://{account}.visualstudio.com/defaultcollection/[{project}/]_apis/wit/wiql?api-version={version}" I'm assuming that the wrapping of the
project section in the url in square brackets ([{project}/]) indicates that this section is optional.
3. I've tried a simpler query:
"query": "Select [System.WorkItemType],[System.Title],[System.State],[Microsoft.VSTS.Scheduling.Effort],[System.IterationPath], [Microsoft.VSTS.Common.BacklogPriority] From WorkItems"
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Morné

Hello Morne,
Visual Studio Integrate forum is for questions about Visual Studio extension development. Yours seems to be about Visual Studio Online REST API to query something. Maybe
Visual Studio Online forum is better, I'm not sure.
I move it to [where is this forum for ...] forum, where the moderator will direct you to the right forum.
Thanks for your understanding.

Installing Visual Studio runtimes on Build and Captures

Greetings,
I was just wondering how many of you out there install all Visual Studio runtimes in your base OS builds as part of you build and capture process. This would be the following four:
VC2005, VC2008, VC2010, VC2012 Update 4.
I'm thinking that there are so many apps these days that tend to use one or other of these versions that you might as well include them all. Is there a downside to doing this (apart from the increased OS build file size?).
Thanks
David Z

Yes. The Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime redistributable package install runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries required to run applications developed with Visual C++. They are not related to Windows.
If you deploy a x86 application on Windows 7 x64, it will require the x86 of Visual C++ Runtime.
If you deploy a x64 application on Windows 7 x64, it will require the x64 of Visual C++ Runtime.
A x86 application cannot use a x64 runtime. So yes you may need them in your image

Microsoft Visual Studio - Exception Error

I am just trying to convert a data file into an array in Microsoft Visual Studio 2013. My code first builds with no errors (its all green) then it comes up with this error message.
"First-chance exception at 0x00A9C856 in Tuesday31.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x00290068.
If there is a handler for this exception, the program may be safely continued."
It then gives me the options to either "Open Exception Settings","Break","continue" or "Ignore"
I am very inexperienced so do not know how to proceed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Based on your issue, it is related to the Azure,
so
I’m
afraid that it is not the correct forum for his issue.

For example:
As you said that when you are trying to convert a data
file into an array, could you please tell me which kind of project you create in VS2013?
What language you use for converting a data file into an array in VS2013?
Thanks for your understanding.
