Hello,
Is Measurement Studio 2012 compatible with the newly released Visual Studio 2012 (no longer in beta as of this post)? Thank you for any information you can provide!!

Hello EricJay,
Great question! Measurement Studio 2012 is not compatible with the recently released Visual Studio 2012. This is the main priority for the next release.

You should still be able to use the Measurement Studio 2012 assemblies with Visual Studio 2012.

Hi Jacob,
Thank you for the update. I do not expect to begin any VS2012 projects for a while, since there is a lot to learn about the new Metro UI for Windows 8. It is good to know that support for VS2012 is in the works. Thanks!!

So what parts of Measurement Studio 2012 will not work with Visual Studio 2012? Will the help system integrate?

@dwk: MS 2012 Beta seems to work with VS 2012 except for the XAML (designer) view. When viewing NI controls in design view, it throws an error saying MS 2012 is not registered for this version of Visual Studio. Also, the NI controls are not put in the toolbox by default, but you can add them very easily if you want.

Hi All,
As Jacob metioned, Measurement Studio 2012 does not support Visual Studio 2012. We do not have a complete list of what does and does not work in Visual Studio 2012 yet. However, I can tell you a few things that we do know.
Also, we currently do not plan to support Windows 8 Metro UI in the next release of Measurement Studio.
Visual Studio 2012 support is our top priority for the next release of Measurement Studio.

Thank you D. Biel for your response. I am not worried about Windows 8 support at this time but I do want to use Visual Studio 2012 as it shows many improvements over Visual Studio 2010. It is too bad that NI did not implement support for VS 2012 as it became available so shortly after MS 2012. With both of them showing the 2012 moniker you would think they would play well together. Oh well, I had to deal with this after VS 2010 came out so I guess I will have to deal with it again.

Hi,
My company just updated my Visual Studio to 2012 version.
I have tried installing Measurement Studio without success and also tried to add reference manually.
Our solution uses just NationalInstruments.UI dll, I tried adding this assembly by reference to the project, also didn't work.
I talked with your support and they told me that your next release will support the new VS 2012.
Since I can't compile, I am stack!
You didn't provide and date for the release, I am asking for some solution, heard you have a beta version, maybe it can resolve my problem.
Please Help!!
Thank you,
Guy Katznelson.

If you still have VS2010 installed you can configure your solution there and then open it in VS2012.
I too am disappointed that NI did not prepare the Measurement Studio 2012 for VS2012 before release. It's not like they did not know VS2012 was coming. As far as NI is concerned, if it does not pertain to LabView, they really don't care. I am surprised that they even support Measurement Studio at all anymore.
