GP 9.0 SDK for VS2008?

Posted on by 160

I was wondering (as I have exhausted all my search efforts) -- is there a GP 9.0 SDK and VSTools for GP for Visual Studios 2008? I don't have 2005 (which it asks for when I try to install) and cannot get my hands on a copy and I frequently program in 2008. Please help me as I have been searching all day with no luck.

    There is no Visual Studio 2008 version of the VS Tools SDK. There's a good chance that you'll be able to make it work with Visual Studio 2008 however. You'll need to install the samples, which are in Visual Studio 2005 format. Make a copy of the samples and then open them with VS 2008, which will upgrade them. You should be able to compile them, and verify that they work. If they do, then use those sample projects as your template for creating your own project.

    There's nothing too magical about the templates that are installed for VS Tools. They just make it more convenient to create new projects, because they already contain the appropriate assembly references, resources, and some template code. The samples will also have those same things, because they were created using the templates.

     Hope this helps.
