About VS2022 17.4 Release AMR64 Version vstool

[StefanHope]

Hi everyone, when will the new version be released? I have tried to build the ARM64 version. But it always show error about "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Enterprise\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v17.0\TextTemplating\Microsoft.TextTemplating.targets(347,5): error : Compiling transformation: Invalid token 'this' in class, record, struct, or interface member declaration. Line=1, Column=1" "D:\Testing\vstools-dev\qtmsbuild\QtMsBuild\qt.targets(67,3): error MSB4024: The imported project file "D:\Testing\vstools-dev\qtmsbuild\QtMsBuild\qt_tasks.targets" could not be loaded. Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1."

Please give me a favor. Thanksss

Hi, many thanks for bringing this matter to our attention. So far we did not yet specify a time-frame to release a ARM64 version of our tooling. Since we already got an entry in our official bug tracker Support QT VS Tools for VS2022 ARM64, the progress will be tracked there. In any case, please vote for the feature request on the mentioned page.

Hi, could you give me a release of this vsix for arm64, event not the formal release? I do really need it, I could not build the source solution. Thanks a lot.

[kaheimri]

Hi, I'm not sure I fully understand your request. Do you need a version of Qt VS Tools that run on ARM or do you need a version that runs on x86-64 and supports a build of Qt for ARM?

[StefanHope]

I really need a version of Qt VS Tools that run on ARM. Thanks.

same issue

[kaheimri]

I'm sorry, but currently we cannot provide a build of Qt VS Tools for ARM. To make sure your request is processed in a timely manner, please up-vote the the current Jira task here: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTVSADDINBUG-1055

[StefanHope]

already vote it

[kaheimri]

We build a version of the tools for ARM. We will probably release an alpha package next week.

[StefanHope]

thanks a lot!!!

[StefanHope]

Hi, have you already released an alpha package for arm?

[kaheimri]

An 'qt-vsaddin-arm_alpha-2.10.0.vsix' ARM alpha package is available here: https://download.qt.io/development_releases/vsaddin/2.10.0/

Does it work on Visual Studio for Mac?

[kaheimri]

@altitudedashboard unfortunately Visual Studio for Mac does not have support for C++, therefore the Qt VS Tools is not supported there either. Still, you can vote for C++ support on Mac here: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/support-projects-with-c-c14-c17-language-with-inte/356171 We would glad to support the platform once it becomes available.

@StefanHope, can you please file a bug report over here: https://bugreports.qt.io . As Project please select 'Qt Visual Studio Tools (QTVSADDINBUG)'. As noted by the VSIX installer, it did not find a valid product to install the extension for. You can still try the following steps as outlined here:

1. Rename the .vsix to .vsix.zip
2. Change directory into the .zip file
3. Open the .visxmanifest file in your editor
4. Change all version numbers from 17.4 to 17
5. Save and close the file, rename the .zip back to .vsix
6. Give it another try, if it still fails we need to continue on our bug tracker
