Sharepoint 2013 - Can I use Visual Studio 2012 express edition for web-parts and app parts?

I am new to sharepoint 2013. I want to develop the app and web parts using visual studio 2012 express edition. Can I use vs 2012 express edtion to create app and web parts for sharepoint 2013?

Unfortunately no, check this post:
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/52338/sharepoint2013-development-with-vs2012-express
To build SharePoint 2013 webparts/apps you will need the 'Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2012', which do not come as part of Visual Studio. The tools require Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate, Premium, or Professional.
The tools and prerequisites can be found here:

Setup and deployment for Visual studio 2012 express edition...

>is their any way to create setup file for application developed using express editions??
For 2013, only by using 3'rd party tools.
If you use the VS2013 community edition, then (so it says here

the VS Installer addon should work.

Sharepoint 2013 Workflow InitForm.aspx Visual Studio 2013

Hi,
I have a small problem. In my initform.aspx for my SP 2013 workflow I have a people editor element so that users can select multiple users (reviewers). I successfully used jquery to get the login-names. I want to use these names for a composite task in my
workflow, and the task want a collection<string> in the AssignedTo-box. How do i store these logins in a collection<string> object? What datatype do I use for my workflow argument to store these logins from the javascript(wfParams) in my InitForm.aspx?
//Regards Kjell

Hi,
To develop SharePoint 2013 workflows using Visual Studio 2012, it requires to set up a workflow development environment first.
It is recommended to look through the two documentations from MSDN about
Prepare to set up and configure a SharePoint workflow development environment
before starting the workflow development:

I have VMware Fusion installed on my computer along with windows 7. I'm able to use Visual Studios 2012

I have VMware Fusion installed on my computer along with windows 7. I’m able to use Visual Studios 2012 & 2013; however, when I try to install SQL Server is says I don’t have a valid installation folder. So I guess my question is, can you install SQL Server to a MAC?
Thanks!

How create Windows Services in Azure using Visual Studio 2012

Hi,
I have a need to write a Windows Service (Batch Job), which would execute everyday at a specified time, say 4:00AM. This job will do some processing and will send out an email to predefined users. I am using Visual Studio 2012 for the development.
Based on some research, it looks like that Azure doesn't have a concept of Windows Service. Rather, we need to create WorkerRole to achieve the same.
I wrote the code to implement the WorkerRole. The problem, I am facing is that
1. How to prevent the continuous looping of the code below? I want the task to be executed only once a day at 4:00AM
2. How do I schedule this functionality in Azure?
Any help will be highly appreciated. I have provided the code sample below.
Thanks.
   public class WorkerRole : RoleEntryPoint
        public override void Run()
            while (true)
                SendNewsEmail();
                Thread.Sleep(10000);
       private void SendNewsEmail()
            /*Email Logic Goes Here*/
        public override bool OnStart()
            // Set the maximum number of concurrent connections
            ServicePointManager.DefaultConnectionLimit = 12;
            return base.OnStart();

HI
I think JuneT's answer is what you want.
However it's for Azure website.
If you still want to use a workerRole, you need much harder work.
You can use Timers Class to do such things:

How do I schedule this functionality in Azure
I suggest you save the settings file in a cloud table, and notify your webrole using WCF service to let the service get the new settings when your changed it.

Visual Studio 2012 Express and 2013 Professional won't open

I have downloaded both Visual Studio 2012 Express and 2013 Profession and both stop working when I open them. I have been using the developers command prompt from 2013 to run some c++ code. I need the program for my c++ class so please
help as soon as possible.

Hi,
Is there any specific error message occur when you open VS?
Because of there is not enough information for troubleshoot, I will give you some advice:
First, reboot the machine into safe mode. This can isolate some third part application.
Second, you can use Devenv.exe Command Line to start the VS and collect logs for troubleshooting:
You could type ‘Devenv.exe /SafeMode’, which starts Visual Studio in safe mode, loading only the default environment and services.
You could create a log file (‘Devenv.exe /log’ ) on your drive. If this issue exists still, you could invest your log file to narrow down the issue.
More information about Devenv.exe Command Line, you could refer the following link:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/ms241273(v=VS.80)
Third, you should make sure you can successfully install the VS. Please use collect.exe utility to collect VS install logs to see whether the VS installation is success:
http://aka.ms/vscollect
And make sure you already followed up these steps to install your VS:
1. Re-download the Visual studio from Microsoft official site here:
http://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/download-visual-studio-vs
After download you should use File Checksum Integrity Verifier tool to verify the integrity of your download. If the values don't match, your download may be corrupted and you should download the file again:
Refer to the below page to know checksum detailed number:
http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/visual-studio-2013-iso-sha1-vs.aspx
Refer to Download the Microsoft File Checksum Integrity Verifier to know how to check the checksum hash value.
2. Disable your Anti-Virus or Anti-Spyware software and be sure that your OS has been "patched" up - Update your computer (Windows) before install the VS.
3. Clean your %temp% folder and run the installer with Administrator permission.
Look the links to get more information:

How To: Use Visual Studio, IIS Express, and Adobe Edge Inspect to view local projects

You CAN view a Visual Studio project with Adobe Inspect. The work around takes a little bit of time.
This involves using IIS Express to run your Visual Studio project, which is mainly a setting in Visual Studio, a Firewall change, a few command line and IIS Express config change. It isn't actually all that bad, but will make your life A LOT easier.
Here are the steps. (Note these are steps I used for Visual Studio 2012 and your project is part of a solution project. Windows 7 or Windows 8)
1. If IIS in not turned on, turn it on.How to: Enable Internet Information Services (IIS) - this should install IIS Express as well.
2. In Visual Studio, find the port that Visual Studio will be using for your project by Running your web project (Debug), and note/write down/save the port number that shows up in the browser when the project launches. (ex. http://localhost:12345)
3. Add a NetShare Reservation (process for this will be different for Windows XP)
Go to your Command Line (CMD) in Windows and in c:\Windows\system32> type in
netsh http add urlacl url=http://yourIPaddress:yourPortNumber user=everyone
(ex. netsh add urlacl url=http://12.34.56.78:12345 user=everyone)
Hit Enter key. You should be a successful add reservation message
3. Go to your Windows Explorer (File system) and go to c:/Users/YourName/MyDocuments (or Documents)/IISExpress/config/ and open 'applicationhost.config'
In the 'applicationhost.config' file find your site in the <sites> section.
Example:
<sites>
<site name="WebSite1" id="1" serverAutoStart="true">
 <application path="/">
 <virtualDirectory path="/" physicalPath="C:\MyProjects\TestSite" />
 </application>
 <bindings>
 <binding protocol="http" bindingInformation=":12345:localhost" />
 </bindings>
 </site>
</sites>
In this section ADD 2 new lines to the <bindings> section. Note add your own IP address and your own Computer Name
<binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:12345:12.34.56.78" />
<binding protocol="http" bindingInformation=":12345:MyComputerName" />
Save the config file.
4. Open up your Windows Firewall and go to 'Advanced Settings'. Here you want to create an Inbound Rule.
Right click on Inbound Rule and select New Rule
- Rule Type select 'Custom'
- Program leave this
- Protocol and Ports > Protocol Type select 'TCP' then Local Port select 'Specific Port' and fill in the port number you got from VS. Leave Remote Port alone.
- Scope
There are a few ways of doing this. Typically you would go the the Remote IP address and select 'These IP addresses: and select ADD > select 'Predefined set of computers' and choose Local Subnet. IF this does not work leave Remote IP addresses > Any IP address option selected instead.
- Action leave this
- Profile select Domain and Private
- Name put IISExpressWeb for the name
Select 'Finish'
5. Go to Visual Studio. (Note if you have multiple projects in your solution, choose your start up project. Right click on your project in Solution Explorer in VS and select 'Set as Start Up Project' )
Right click on your start up project again and you should see an option to 'Use IISExpress'
In the DEBUG dropdown (from the main menu bar at the top) select 'YourProjectName Properties'. Mine was the last one in the list with a wrench icon next to it.
This should open an new tab in your project, You should see a left hand list of option and a right hand column of options.
In the left column select 'Web' and in this tab select Use Local IIS Web server and select 'Use IIS Express' and type in your IP Address and port number (same as before) in the Project Url text box.
Save.
NOW, you should be able to run your project in Visual Studio and use Adobe Edge Inspect on your device and view new results in Chrome. You can develop from there.
If you still can not see it working, please be sure your device is on the same SubNet or Wireless network as your computer. If you are in a large network but the domains can still see each other, the Firewall Setting detailed above to allow Any IP Address in your Scope section.

How can I use two single-dimensional arrays-one for the titles and array

I want to Use two single-dimensional arrays-one for the titles and one for the ID
Could everyone help me how can i write the code for it?
Flower
public class Video
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
int[][] ID =
{ {145,147,148},
{146,149, 150} };
String[][] Titles=
{ {"Barney","True Grit","The night before Christmas"},
{"Lalla", "Jacke Chan", "Metal"} };
int x, y;
int r, c;
System.out.println("List before Sort");
for(c =0; c< 3; ++c)
for(r=0; r< 3; ++ r)
System.out.println("ID:" + ID[c][r]+ "\tTitle: " + Titles[c][r]);
System.out.println("\nAfter Sort:");
for(c =0; c< 3; ++c)
for(r=0; r< 3; ++ r)
System.out.println("ID:" + ID[c][r]+ "\tTitle: " + Titles[c][r]);

This is one of the most bizarre questions I have seen here:
public class Video
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
int[] ID = {145,147,148, 146,149, 150};
String[] Titles= {"Barney","True Grit","The night before Christmas", "Lalla", "Jacke Chan", "Metal"};
System.out.println("List before Sort");
for(int i = 0; i < Titles.length; i++)
System.out.println("ID:" + ID[i]+ "\tTitle: " + Titles);
System.out.println("\nAfter Sort:");
for(int i = 0; c < Titles.length; i++)
System.out.println("ID:" + ID[i]+ "\tTitle: " + Titles[i]);
Generally you don't use prefix (++c) operators in you for loop. Use postfix (c++).
Prefix means that it will increment the variable before the loop body is executed. Postfix will cause it to increment after.

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.

Can I use Visual Studio to develop Sharepoint Online workflows on existing site lists?

I've been using Sharepoint Designer to develop workflows in Sharepoint 2013 on Office 365, but hitting limitations. I would like, for example, to be able to trigger a workflow when a list item is deleted.
Perhaps naively I thought Visual Studio should be able to help. I've read of useful things like Remote Event Receivers - sounds exactly what I need. I've used VS before for Windows desktop applications in VB, so downloaded a trial version of VS 2013.
Now I'm having doubts. It looks like I can create a Sharepoint App on a development site and create lists and workflows within it, but I can't access my existing lists to do anything more sophisticated than I already can in SPD. Is that right?
I was expecting to be able to enter my Sharepoint site URL into Visual Studio somewhere, just like in SPD, and do wonderful things with my lists - but unless I'm missing something, that's not possible.
Have I just got it completely wrong??!

Windows 8 HTML5/JavaScript Notification Hubs using Visual Studio 2012

Hi,
I'm not able to implement Microsoft Azure Notification Hubs using HTML5/JavaScript. Please help
Thanks

That is a Windows issue. Perhaps you should contact Microsoft about Windows issue not Visual Studio issue.
You say it fails to work. So I would imagine it downloaded and installed then you attempt to launch it and it fails to work. Or is it the download that fails to work?
Windows Compatibility Mode you can search for on the internet also.
Below is an image of an executables properties. One of the tabs (the one displayed) is for Compatibility. The issue with your system is not an issue for this forum. It's possible a setting displayed below for your executable or possibly your executables
shortcuts could be altered to correct the issue. Or not.

I need a clarification : Can I use EJBs instead of helper classes for better performance and less network traffic?

My application was designed based on MVC Architecture. But I made some changes to HMV base on my requirements. Servlet invoke helper classes, helper class uses EJBs to communicate with the database. Jsps also uses EJBs to backtrack the results.
I have two EJBs(Stateless), one Servlet, nearly 70 helperclasses, and nearly 800 jsps. Servlet acts as Controler and all database transactions done through EJBs only. Helper classes are having business logic. Based on the request relevant helper classed is invoked by the Servlet, and all database transactions are done through EJBs. Session scope is 'Page' only.
Now I am planning to use EJBs(for business logic) instead on Helper Classes. But before going to do that I need some clarification regarding Network traffic and for better usage of Container resources.
Please suggest me which method (is Helper classes or Using EJBs) is perferable
1) to get better performance and.
2) for less network traffic
3) for better container resource utilization
I thought if I use EJBs, then the network traffic will increase. Because every time it make a remote call to EJBs.
Please give detailed explanation.
thank you,

Please suggest me which method (is Helper classes or Using EJBs) is perferable :
1) to get better performance
EJB's have quite a lot of overhead associated with them to support transactions and remoteability. A non-EJB helper class will almost always outperform an EJB. Often considerably. If you plan on making your 70 helper classes EJB's you should expect to see a dramatic decrease in maximum throughput.
2) for less network traffic
There should be no difference. Both architectures will probably make the exact same JDBC calls from the RDBMS's perspective. And since the EJB's and JSP's are co-located there won't be any other additional overhead there either. (You are co-locating your JSP's and EJB's, aren't you?)
3) for better container resource utilization
Again, the EJB version will consume a lot more container resources.
