We’ve made sign in required for Preview and RC, but as we said in our Preview post, sign in will be optional in the final Visual Studio 2013 release. Similar to Preview, you can continue using Visual Studio for the 14 day trial period without signing in. Read about our plans for signing in to Visual Studio at our post from Preview. When you first launch RC, you will be asked to sign in. For more information, see system requirements and platform compatibility. Visual Studio 2013 RC does not support Windows 8.1 Preview or Windows Server 2012 R2 Preview. However, please note that, Windows Store app development requires Windows 8.1 RTM, which is available to MSDN and TechNet subscribers. It can also be installed on top of Visual Studio 2013 Preview without having to uninstall Preview. Visual Studio 2013 RC works seamlessly side-by-side with Visual Studio 2012.

Classes, Types, Modules, Forms, and Controls can be inspected using the Object Browser and Class View.Today, we announced that the Visual Studio 2013 Release Candidate is now available for download on our Visual Studio product site. The latest version registers loaded VB6 projects with the Object Manager. ![]() New: Symbol Browsing (Object Browser, Class View) The current version allows us to display and edit a subset of classic VBP project settings (will probably be extended in future versions). The project properties designer works directly on VBP files (MSBuild project files have only been introduced due to compatibility issues). It integrates with the solution explorer and the code editor having support for syntax highlighting, basic outlining (allows to expand/collapse methods, properties, and types) as well as navigation bar support. The package registers a new language service supporting Visual Basic 6 projects and code files. The project system synchronizes all changes made to a project with the corresponding VBP file this allows us to use this toolset in parallel with the Visual Basic 6 IDE. The import tool creates a new solution and MSBuild compatible projects. ![]() This is not a converter nor another VB6 upgrade wizard. The extension adds the VB-CLASSIC menu item to the development environment this menu allows us to load classic VB workspace- and project-files and offers quick access to the extension´s options. The download for Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 can be found here: /vsgallery/00cc8ff8-beb3-4f08-8aa6-59eefba3bb40 What´s in the box? Your feedback is appreciated! License keys can be obtained via the product website at Please use the UserVoice forum at to leave feature requests or report any bugs. This toolset is still under development.Īnd does not claim to be a feature-complete replacement for the classic VB6 IDE. The software is licensed "as-is" and you bear the risk of using it. This is pre-release software that is not intended to be used in a live operating environment. Right now the toolset is still under development and some valuable features are not available yet, but it could already worth it to try. Its intention is to provide better development tools for teams that have to maintain legacy code or working on migration projects. Visual Basic Tools for Visual Studio is a language service extension for Visual Studio 20 allowing us to work on classic Visual Basic projects within Visual Studio.
