Visual Studio 2008
#simplsharp
I'm trying to edit a Simpl# module, but Visual Studio 2008 isn't available to download anymore. All the links I can find on the Microsoft website either download a PowerPoint document or the Service Pack which won't install because VS2008 isn't installed. Does anyone know of a place to download VS2008 or know of a different way to edit Simpl# modules?
Thanks, Caleb |
Sorry for ressurecting an old thread, but I don't seem to find an answer.
I want to dive into Simpl#, and on the Crestron Website, they say the libraries work with Visual Studio 2008 SP1. It seems to be an old version, not supported anymore and not available for download. (except for the link provided above)? I doubt that the only way to create simpl# modules is throught this old 2008 software. Crestron should be better than this... no? I heard about Visual Studio Community versions, can that work? What is the simplest way for me to start? I'm new at this Simpl# thing so thanks for your help. -----------------------------edit------------------------------ If I understand correctly the excel sheet, VS2008 professional is included in the latest supported version of VS if you have a specific Microsoft Licence that allows it? |
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýDue to the .NET framework version that the Windows CE install for 3-series processors uses you must use VS2008 with the Crestron Plugin. You can¡¯t use the plugin on newer (or older) VS versions or community edition versions. If you don¡¯t need 3-series support (given the number of 3-series processors that are still current product I¡¯d say this is dangerous but then again if you only do resi the MPC and DMPS may not matter to you) ? If you have a Visual Studio Subscription you can definitely get VS2008 in the VS portal¡ I just set up a new desktop a couple weeks ago and two of my first installs were Visual Studio 2022 and 2008 ¨C both downloaded from the same portal and no issues (I have physical media for Visual Studio 2008 but my new PC doesn¡¯t support optical discs so it was just easier to download the ISO than find a drive and key in the CD key) ?

I have heard rumors that some people have gotten old 3.5 stuff to compile with new versions of VS, but I believe they needed the VS2008 installed as well.
Unfortunately debugging with the latest VS is the biggest pain I have ever fought.? Funny how they celebrated getting rid of the VS2008 debugging at their masters talk on debugging.? It may have been a bit finnicky but WAY more reliable than debugging with 2019. |
