Doesn't work with VS 2013 after update from 2.5.0 #1483

Closed inosik closed 7 years ago

inosik commented 7 years ago

Description

After I updated the extension from 2.5.0 to 2.5.6, all features stopped working. The option page in Tools > Options is visible. Disabling the other extensions didn't help. Starting Visual Studio with the /log switch didn't reveal anything. I also tried to install this extension on another machine with VS 2013 and I can observe the same behavior.

Repro steps

Use this extension with VS 2013, apparently.

Expected behavior

Everything that is enabled in the options should work.

Actual behavior

Syntax highlighting, rename refactoring, F12 and everything else doesn't work at all.

Known workarounds

Downgrade to 2.5.0.

I've just tried to enable the "Diagnostic Mode", but I don't get any output in the output pane with 2.5.2, while 2.5.0 prints some information.

Faced same issue with above workaround.

I think we won't be supporting any version prior 2017. Actually I hope this project will be merged with Visual F# Tools soon.

That's really sad. F# tooling is pretty much non-existent in vanilla VS and I'm stuck on 2013 until my company decides to upgrade to VS 2017, or even the next one. I'm sure there are lots of people who are in a similar situation.

But if this is the way forwards, I think there should be a last working version of VFPT which doesn't prompt for broken updates.

@inosik @vasily-kirichenko Having a stable VS2013/15 branch which an interested group of people could support over the next couple of years would be great.

OK, VS 2013 users should use 2.5.0.
