Are there any plans of releasing a new version of the Extensibility SDK referencing the ArcGIS API for Silverlight 3.0? And what about Visual Studio 2012? Will it install the templates in VS2012?
The new Extensibility API compatabile with ArcGIS API for Silverlight 3.0 is expected to release with the release of the ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight. For more information on the release please refer to this post
Will the new release install the templates in Visual Studio 2012?
No. The ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight v3.0 extensibility template is for Visual Studio 2010. We are planning on supporting Visual Studio 2012 in the next Silverlight Viewer release (targeting later this year/early next year).
Hi Ezequias,
Is there any problem to use extensibility (2.4) with Client 3.0?
Thank you for the information, the template created a version pointing to many 3.0 libraries but the application simply does not open. I have the Silverlight 5.0 installed and the application just appears blank.
I tried to change my add-in and layout projects to use Silverlight 5 as a target and the application does not compile.

If you are using version 1.0.1 of the Silverlight Viewer and version 2.4 of the Viewer extensibility API, you need to use Silverlight 4 and ArcGIS API for Silverlight v2.4 . You can get the Silverlight 4 Tools for Visual Studio 2010 here and Silverlight API v2.4 here.
It will not be possible to use Silverlight 5 and ArcGIS API for Silverlight v3.0 to develop add-ins until the next version of the Viewer is released.
