The current distribution for System.Data.SQLite does not work with Visual Studio 2013 unless you deploy the VS2012 Update3 release pack (presumably) or just install (on a test machine like I did) the full version.
Does anyone know when the System.Data.SQLite team will release builds for Visual Studio 2013, both the precompiled static libraries that I would distribute to a customer and the full designer version that I would use?
The current release as of this post is 1.0.89.0, which does not include options for VS2013.
There is now a build that natively supports VS2013. Go to http://system.data.sqlite.org/index.html/doc/trunk/www/downloads.wiki and search for "Visual Studio 2013". As of today the install is called sqlite-netFx451-setup-bundle-x86-2013-1.0.92.0.exe.
It's currently not supported on VS 2013, but soon will be(Like most other libraries)
I believe they build every 2 weeks of the core project.

Q: Modifying a VSIX file to declare it compatible with Visual Studio Comunity 2015. Is this a good idea, and if so, how can I do this?
More information, a specific example:
I'm trying to add either of the following to Visual Studio Community 2015 on Windows 8.1:
For VS 2010: https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/ba57efa3-4061-4cdf-97f5-51715c4f120a
For VS 2012 & 2013: https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/b61cc443-4790-42b7-b7ab-2691119667d2
The file provided opens with "Microsoft Visual Studio Version Selector".
Specific example continued, Installation Failed:
I'm then presented with an "Installation Failed" message and a log file, these are the important parts:
Name: SharpGL
...
Supported Products:
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Ultimate
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Premium
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Pro
Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCSExpress
...
This does not seem to include my product, but then:
Searching for applicable products...
Found installed product - Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2015
Found installed product - Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Shell (Integrated)
Found installed product - Global Location
Great, I have a compatible product! However:
VSIXInstaller.NoApplicableSKUsException:
This extension is not installable on any currently installed products.
at VSIXInstaller.App.InitializeInstall(Boolean isRepairSupported)
at VSIXInstaller.App.InitializeInstall()
at System.Threading.Tasks.Task.InnerInvoke()
at System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Execute()
Confusing!
VS Community appears to have replaced and be very similar to VS Express. Today trying to download VS Express from the Microsoft website yields only VS Community.
VS Community Edition was released as a replacement for VS Express Editions.
Express editions don't support Extensions / Plugins.
for VXIS packages the version of VS supported is decided by the package itself when you execute it to install (it's basically msi installation package that gives you a list of supported versions)
Usually the supported versions is in the manifest inside the package, getting support in for a different version I believe requires a fresh compile.
In other words ...
If you want to install a VSIX extension in to a particular version of VS you need the version of the VSIX that matches that version of VS
I am having difficulty in installing Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise (Update 1). After installation completes, I get a warning saying "Not all features installed correctly". See below snip for details
In control panel programs list I found that VC++ 14.0.23506 (both x64 and x86) are installed.
I am able to open visual studio, but when I try to create a new project I get following error regrading c# compiler error
I know performing a clean install again is a solution, but I have poor internet speed and would like to avoid downloading the whole thing again. Any help in fixing this would be great.
PS: I have VS 2013 professional and VS 2012 express also installed, both of which are working fine
Try uninstalling Visual Studio 2015, those VC++ 2015 x86 and x64 runtimes, and reinstalling Visual Studio 2015. Looks like it didn't finish installing properly because you already had the runtimes installed.
I already have a project which is ready to build. Currently, I am using visual studio 2013.
But, I don't know how to create an MSI setup in visual studio 2013, but for visual studio 2010 there are plenty of tutorials out there discussing how to create a setup in visual studio 2010.
Does this mean I need to install visual studio 2010 in order to create an application setup for my project?
What is the easiest way to create an application setup in visual studio 2013?
Microsoft has listened to the cry for supporting installers (MSI) in Visual Studio and release the Visual Studio Installer Projects Extension. You can now create installers in VS2013, download the extension here from the visualstudiogallery.
visual-studio-installer-projects-extension
As of Visual Studio 2012, Microsoft no longer provides the built-in deployment package. If you wish to use this package, you will need to use VS2010.
In 2013 you have several options:
InstallShield
WiX
Roll your own
In my projects I create my own installers from scratch, which, since I do not use Windows Installer, have the advantage of being super fast, even on old machines.
Visual Studio 2013 now supports setup projects. Microsoft have shipped a Visual Studio extension to produce setup projects.
Visual Studio Installer Projects Extension
Microsoft recommends to use the "InstallShield Limited Edition for Visual Studio" as replacement for the discontinued "Deployment and Setup Project" - but it is not so nice and nobody else recommends to use it. But for simple setups, and if it is not a problem to relay on commercial third party products, you can use it.
The alternative is to use Windows Installer XML (WiX), but you have to do many things manually that did the Setup-Project by itself.
Microsoft also release the Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Installer Projects Extension This is the same extension as the 2013 version but for Visual Studio 2015
Apart from Install Shield and WiX, there is Inno Setup. Although I haven't tried it myself I have heard good things about it.
I will tell , how i solved almost similar problem. I developed a application using VS 2013 and tried to create wizard for it failed to do. Later i installed premium VS and tried and failed.
at last i used "ClickOnce" and it worked fine.
So i believe here also , "CLICKONCE" would help you.
What C# compiler does Visual Studio 2013 use? If I were to install Visual Studio 2015 with its new Roslyn compiler, would that affect my Visual Studio 2013 installation?
I ask because we have some tests that are known to fail when our code is built with Visual Studio 2015. Some numbers differ at the eight significant figure. The solution when Visual Studio 2015 is released will probably be to increase the tolerances on the tests, but I'd like to understand how Visual Studio decides which compiler to use.
Can Visual Studio 2013 be explicitly set to use the old compiler? Or an msbuild script?

Visual Studio 2013 installation?
Installing Visual Studio 2015 Preview will not affect your Visual Studio 2013 installation, and the old C# and VB compilers that live in .NET Framework installation folder within the Windows directory are not replaced. Instead, Visual Studio 2015 Preview uses and includes a preview of the next version of the Microsoft Build Tools, MSBuild 14.0, that is installed in the 32-bit Program Files folder under \MSBuild\14.0 and contains the new Roslyn compilers and code analysis libraries.
For C++, nothing substantial has changed, and as the compilers live in the \VC\bin subfolder of the particular Visual Studio installation, they will not affect each other.

an msbuild script?
It's not necessary since Visual Studio 2013 can only use the old compilers, unless you installed and enabled the Roslyn CTP extension which has become obsolete by now.
No. Installing Visual Studio 2015 doesn't change the compiler used by VS 2013. At the command line, you can choose between by running the corresponding msbuild.exe
The test failures were due to .NET Framework 4.6 , rather than a change in compiler.
Fixed the problem by setting the 'use legacy JIT' environment COMPLUS_useLegacyJit variable per https://github.com/Microsoft/dotnet/blob/master/docs/testing-with-ryujit.md
Installing VS2015 will replace the .NET Runtime and update it to 4.5.3 - I don't know whether the JIT compiler is replaced, but it is possible.
In this case you could observe differing test results regardless of which C# compiler was used.
Anyways, installing 4.5.3 runtime is a major change to the machine and can't live side-by-side with non-preview runtimes so I'd not recommend it on a production machine. For example the Debugger API from Microsoft, CLRMD (Microsoft.Diagnostics.Runtime nuget package) no longer can connect to a 4.5.3 runtime - it's been reported here for example.
I would assume there are more breaking changes to be discovered.
Maybe VS 2015 does not affect the compiler used by VS 2013, but it definitely affects Roslyn (if you install VS 2015 your old, pre-VS2015 Roslyn code could stop working). For me it introduced problems with compiling anonymous types in ConfigR scripts.
I faced the issue by installing VS Professional 2015 Release side by side VS professional 2012. My MVC 3 Project created in VS 2012/ .net 4.0 I am not able to open now. I am able to open it in VS 2015/ .Net 4.0 only.
I want to install Nsight in Visual Studio 2013 so that I can start working with CUDA. However, as of now, Nvidia has not released a version of Nsight for Visual Studio 2013.
I want to develop in Visual Studio 2013 because I do not have Visual Studio 2012 nor Visual Studio 2010. What are my options? How can I develop CUDA applications in Visual Studio 2013?
Here is CUDA 6.0 Release Candidate that is supposed to support 2013 is now available that was released in Febuary of this year.
https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-toolkit
NOTE: looks like this release will NOT have support for the VS 2013(VC12) compiler. The next version of the RC. The next CUDA version will have support for the VC12 compiler, with candidate builds being available this summer

CUDA 6.5 Release Candidate (Link 2) and NVIDIA Nsight Visual Studio Edition 4.1 Release Candidate 1 (Link 2) are both released on NVIDIA Developer site now; they both provide VS2013 support. You don't have to have VS2012 installed alongside with VS2013 anymore.
To download CUDA 6.5 RC, you have to be part of NVIDIA's CUDA/GPU Computing Registered Developer Program, and to download Nsight Visual Studio Edition 4.1 RC1, you have to be part of NVIDIA's Graphics/Game Development Registered Developer Program. I don't know why they have different requirements. You can register an account on NVIDIA Developer site and opt-in the programs from your account information, for free. Applications are usually processed within a day.
