shansen Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I had heard rumors on a past thread that DT was considering upgrading the IDE to the VS2010 shell. If this is true, what is the timeline for this upgrade? I am asking because my company would like to write custom add-ins to extend the IDE, but if you will be sticking with the VS2008 shell for a while we will create our add-ins using the VS2008 add-in system. If you are upgrading to the VS2010 shell, we can create our addins using the new extensibility system (.vsix packages). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omron Forums Support Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Currently we are using VS2008 based Isolated shell for IDE. The newer version of isolated shell will be available by next year so I am planning to skip the VS2010based shell and move to next one. As far as Addin you should be able to write your own and they should work in current IDE as well as the next one. I was in Microsoft and I do not have any information about anything changed in the Addin interface. Thanks, Atul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shansen Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 Thanks Atul, we will go ahead with the VS2008 add-in method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
