Create SharePoint 2013 workflow using visual studio 2013

Dear Team,
How to create a workflow for template approval process using visual studio 2013.To achieve this do i need to install share point on my machine.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to create a SharePoint 2013 workflow using Visual Studio 2013.
We need setting up and configuring Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013 and the Workflow Manager Client 1.0 server, see Start:
Set up and configure SharePoint 2013 Workflow Manager.

SharePoint 2013 State Machine Workflow Developped using Visual Studio 2013 Terminated

Hi all,
I developped a state machine workflow using Visual Studio 2013, and deplyed to SharePoint 2013, the workflow work fine for first task, and some times for second task.
after that the workflow become terminated with below error:
- System.Activities.Statements.WorkflowTerminatedException: The workflow instance exceeded the throttle of 10000 activities executed in a row and could not be unloaded because it was not persistable.
I spent many days to solve this issue but witout any result...
Please advice...

Hi,
According to your description, there seems an endless loop in your workflow which makes the workflow exceed the throttle.
A suggestion is that you can create a new clean sample state machine workflow firstly, when it works without error, then adding other activities with custom logic
gradually.
By doing this, it would be easier to find out what might cause the error in this workflow.

Import SharePoint Designer 2013 workflows into Visual Studio 2012

I have some 2013 workflows created with SharePoint Designer 2013. I can save the workflows as templates ie WSP files but i cannot figure out how to import them into visual studio 2012. Is this possible? please note the import resusable workflows option
is for sharepoint 2010.

"The workflow activities/actions are in separate assemblies, and each tool references a different one." so you will get an error when you try to open the SPD workflow using Visual Studio.
Please check similar thread below for more details

Create office app for word using visual studio 2013

i tried to create an app for office using visual studio 2013 i just created one in task pane with all default settings and then deployed succesffully and i can't find the app in task pane in word office any ideas
Mohamed Abdeen

Hi Mohamed Abdeen,
Please try to enable a build-in app for Office, such as "Bing dictionary" and check if the task pane pop-up.
If the "Bing dictionary" works well, I suppose that this issue might be caused by itself. I recommend you post the question to Word for DEV forum:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=worddev&filter=alltypes%2Calllanguages&sort=lastpostdesc
If all the apps can't be used, they might be blocked. Please go to File/option/trust center/trusted app catalogs/enable it.

Evaluation period has ended trying to create a BizTalk project in Visual Studio 2013 ultimate

Hi,
I am doing a proof-of-concept with BizTalk, and I am using evaluation versions of everything involved, SQL server 2012 SP1, Windows server 2012, Visual Studio 2013 R2 and BizTalk 2013 R2.
All worked (relatively speaking) until I finally came to creating a BizTalk project in Visual Studio 2013 R2.
I installed the relevant BizTalk components on that machine (windows 8.1 32-bit, non eval) and then I get the BizTalk evaluation period has ended error message.
I am sort of stumped, I have a long while left on the evaluation period on all involved software, anyone knows what this is about?

Hi,
Try repairing the BizTalk installation.
Mark As Answer or Vote As Helpful if this helps.
DPS Bali: I repaired the BizTAlk installation and it worked!
Thanks a lot for your help!!

Question about creating association between Sharepoint BDC entities using Visual Studio 2010

I am following this tutorial:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vssharepointtoolsblog/archive/2010/08/02/walkthrough-of-creating-association-between-sharepoint-bdc-entities-using-visual-studio-2010.aspx
I am getting the following error:
There is an error in the TypeDescriptors of Parameters on Method with Name 'CustomerToOrder' on Entity (External Content Type) with Name 'Customer' in Namespace 'BdcAssociationSample.BdcModel1'. The TypeDescriptors incompletely define where the Foreign
Identifiers of Entity 'Order' in Namespace 'BdcAssociationSample.BdcModel1' are to be read. That Entity expects exactly '1' Identifiers, but only '0' TypeDescriptors with the correct Association were found from which to read them.
I have viewed the following:
http://lightningtools.com/business_connectivity_services/the-typedescriptors-incompletely-define-where-the-identifiers-of-entity-x-are-to-be-readbcs-error/
after reading that article, I am still not sure what setting I am missing. Does anyone have the full working source code from the msdn article linked above?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you got the symbols not loaded error.
First try rebuilding your project by right mouse click the project > Rebuild If that doesn't work, try a clean of the project (right mouse click on the project > clean)
If that didn't work check this:
Right mouse click your project
select [Properties]
select the [Build] tab
make sure [Define DEBUG constant] and [Define TRACE constant] are checked
Click the [Advanced] button at the bottom of the Build tabpage
Make sure that [Debug Info:] is set to [full]
Click [OK] and rebuild the project ;
Hope that works for you! (step 6 generates the .pdb files, these are the debugging symbols)
What’s more, you can clean & re-compile the code, then install the respective dlls one more time to GAC (just remove them before adding to GAC again), do an IISReset to check whether it works.

Finding Memory leaks in C using Visual Studio 2013

I am using Visual Studio 2013, and taking a course in C programming and we started
talking about memory bugs detaction, in particular memory leaks, and how to detect them using Valgrind on Linux.
I want to know if there is a way to detect such memory leaks using VS 2013. I tried searching online but it just leads to lots of articles and blogs and msdn posts and blogs with lots of words like dump files, and analyzing them, etc which is weird
because:
1) It sounds so complex, convoluted and unintuitive it is actually hard to comprehend it.
2) The main reason this is weird is due to the fact that VS is the most advanced IDE around and Microsoft spends so much money on in, yet from what I have read it seems that there is no simple way to use VS to detect memory leaks
- certainly no way that's as simple as Valgrind where I only have to compile the program and run the command valgrind -leaks-check=yes ProgramName
and it simply prints to me all location it thinks there is a memory leak and describes the error (like not freeing memory after allocating it with malloc hence having "dead" memory after the program finishes, or accessing memory that's out of
the array bounds)
So my question is how to use VS 2013 in order to achieve the same results and to find out First in high level if there are memory leaks in the program, and Second - to detect in a simple manner where those leaks are- preferably without involving dump files
(not that I know how to use them anyway in VS).

Hi MicrosoftLaw,
Thanks for your post.
Based on your issue, if you want to check if there are memory leaks in the C program from this VS2013. I suggest you could try to find Memory Leaks Using the CRT Library, for more information:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/x98tx3cf.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
In addition, I find a similar thread about this issue, please you refer the Dusty's suggestion to check this issue.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/45627/how-do-you-detect-avoid-memory-leaks-in-your-unmanaged-code
I did some research about this issue, I found that the Visual Leak Detector extension tool is a free, robust, open-source memory leak detection system for Visual C++. So if possible, I suggest you could try to use the Visual Leak Detector extension
tool to find the memory leak for Visual C/ C++ program.
https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/7c40a5d8-dd35-4019-a2af-cb1403f5939c
However, if you have any issue about how to use this Visual Leak Detector extension tool to find the memory leak for C program. I suggest you could directly to write a review to this REVIEW tab in Visual Leak Detector site.

Sharepoint 2010 Remote Development using Visual Studio 2013 Connection Errors

I have a customer who is using a custom skinned site developed in Sharepoint 2010.
I am trying to debug a webpart that is not loading on a page.
My Environment:
Local Laptop running Win 7 64 Enterprise, Visual Studio 2013, and Sharepoint Designer 2010.
I connect to the customers network via VPN and use RDP to access the server. I have Admin rights to the server.
Everything that I have read indicates that Web Part dev has to be done in VS. When I try to connect using server explorer, VS kicks back a 'Server Can not be found' error.
I have tried using the computer name, the app url listed in SP Central Admin, the IP address of the box, and the actual URL of the site. However, VS can not connect to the server.
I have done some homework on connecting VS to a remote machine:

The last connection article is confusing because one of the SO answers indicates that you do not need to have SP2010 installed.
I have been doing lots of reading on SP structure, and it seems to jump all over the place. (Or at least my research does). I have been reading this Ebook:
SharePoint 2010 Development with Visual Studio 2010
http://books.google.com/books/about/SharePoint_2010_Development_with_Visual.html?id=TVKICs4vHTcC
My questions are:
Why cant I connect to the Server if I connected through VPN which would inherently make the server a local network computer?
Do I need to have VS installed on the actual server? I read that I can install Sharepoint Foundation locally and this will give me access to the server in VS.
Do I need to have the full version of VS installed in order to use Remote Tools?
For the Web Parts:
Why cant I see the web parts in Sharepoint Designer? I take it they are exclusively designed in VS, which brings me back to the questions above.
In Sharepoint Designer, I can see a custom view that was created from a custom list. I want to add that list to the page where the web part isnt working. When I open up the Edit Interface, and try to find that list, it does not display in the 'Lists and Libraries'
menu

Hello,
As per your description, remote deployment is not possible for server side code in sharepoint so if you are using server object model then you won't be able to debug or deploy your solution from visual studio.
VS is not required to installed on UAT/prod server but you need sharepoint along with visual studio in same development machine to develop any custom webpart.
Once you deploy your custom webpart on site then you will be able to see that webpart in webpart gallery and that gallery is also available in designer so it means you can also add your custom webpart from designer to any page.

How I can use Visual Studio 2013 to create lists or libraries via remote?

Hello guys,
I use visual studio on my machine and try to create a list, but the sharepoint server is on another machine. It is possible to run a program on my computer and then create a list on the sharepoint server. If yes, how can I achieve this?
Best regards
Matthias

You can create and manage lists and libraries using SharePoint Designer. To use Visual Studio you would have to create a SharePoint project, create a feature, define the list, etc. then create a Solution package and deploy that to the server. If you just
want to manually add a list then use Designer.
