Hi,
Was just wondering what the plans are for developers wanting to use Visual Studio 2026 for making add-ins? I suspect it may be for version 3.7 and beyond.
Just curious to know 🙂
VS 2026 will be supported at 3.7, the next release of Pro.
I had to report my findings, I had install 2026 on a new machine. I can report creating a new add-in seemed to work with the ArcGIS Pro 3.5 SDK along with debugging an existing one. However, I have had one annoyance where I'd get the error below every so often when rebuilding a solution. But a subsequent build works fine.
1> Failed to load the dll from [C:\Program Files\dotnet\host\fxr\10.0.3\hostfxr.dll], HRESULT: 0x800700C11> The library hostfxr.dll was found, but loading it from C:\Program Files\dotnet\host\fxr\10.0.3\hostfxr.dll failed1> - Installing .NET prerequisites might help resolve this problem.1> https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=798306========== Rebuild All: 1 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 skipped ==================== Rebuild completed at 08:20 and took 05.551 seconds ==========
I'm only debugging pre-existing Add-In projects at the moment, that seems to work at least.
and theres no problem with using 2026? Do the VSIX templates and utilities work?
Running Visual Studio 2026 v18.1 with ArcGIS Pro SDK 3.6 at the moment.Haven't uninstalled 2022 yet though😁
