VS 2022 extensions are not backwards compatible.

For historic reasons we have delivered MDriven as an installer exe - and not as is normal in VS a VSIX.

Starting from VS2022 we will need to rewrite and we will target the VSIX instead of exe.

Building the project(admin and developers)

Add a environment variable RevNumber , set this to a number like 123. This variable is used by the buildscript 2022BUILDMDrivenVSIX.cmd that will inject the number into a file source.extension.vsixmanifest based on the template source.extension.vsixmanifest.template.

Later the build engine will update the RevNumber from svn version id.

VS2022: Error Generating Code/Changes not saving

Problem:

If you recently upgraded to VS2022 and you have trouble saving your changes or got this error, while trying to code generate:

Model file "C:\_path_to_your_project\YourProject.ecomdl" belongs to the "Misc Files" project. Please add it to a real project, then close and reopen the editor tab

Solution:

In the project's root folder, delete the hidden .vs folder that might contain the older backups of previous versions of VS.
