Is it possible to compile Cinder on Visual Studio Express 2012? - visual-studio-2012

I'm interested in using Cinder, but version 0.8.4 only supports VS 2008 and VS 2010. Has anyone been able to get Cinder to work/compile on VS Express 2012?

Support for Visual Studio C++ 2012 (Express) has been added in the recently released version 0.8.5.

Typescript 1.3 visual studio 2012

I'm currently developping an app with typescript and angularJs. I'm using typescript 1.0 and i want to upgrade typescript to 1.3. Can i use typescript 1.3 with visual studio 2012 ?
Thanks.
Visual Studio 2012 is no longer supported, but you don't need a license for Visual Studio 2013 if you can be covered by the community edition of Visual Studio 2013...
You can download community edition / read the license here:

Migration from VS 2008 to VS2012 or VS 2013

I recently migrated my VC++ 6.0 application code to Visual studio 2008 in Windows 7. Now, I would like to migrate my project again to Visual studio 2012/2013 in Windows 7. Which is prefered and why?
Visual studio 2008 to visual studio 2012
or
Visual studio 2008 to visual studio 2013
Please advise.
Thanks!

I would just migrate directly to VS2013. The changes between VS2012 and VS2013 are minor and none of them game-breaking.
I would also suggest looking at http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vcblog/archive/2013/06/27/what-s-new-for-visual-c-developers-in-vs2013-preview.aspx and maybe the official MSDN articles
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/bb386063(v=vs.110).aspx for VS2012
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/bb386063(v=vs.120).aspx for VS2013
This may alert you to anything you might want to change\investigate before upgrade. At the end though if your goal is VS2013 then just do 1 upgrade, 1 set of tests etc.

Is it possible to develop extensions for visual studio 2012 using free tools?

I would like to make a template for F# lib + XNA 4.0 + Xbox360 for visual studio 2012.
All I have is Visual Studio 2012 Express Edition for Web.
When I try to install the Visual Studio 2012 SDK, it stops after reporting that it requires Visual Studio 2012. The log seems to indicate it's looking for the Professional edition.
I'm not interested in buying a professional license for hobby work, and I am a bit surprised Microsoft would want to prevent hobbyists from extending their product.
I do have a professional license for Visual Studio 2010, though. If there's a way to make extensions for 2012 using 2010, that would work for me.
You can use VS2010 to develop extension compatible with VS2012.
All you have to do is to manually change vsixmanifest to make it work with newer version:
<SupportedProducts>
<VisualStudio Version="11.0">
Note however that Visual Studio Express does not support extensions, so you won't be able to install it in VS2012 Express anyway.

Is CodeRush Xpress compatible with Visual Studio 2012

Is CodeRush Xpress (the free edition of CodeRush) compatible with Visual Studio 2012?
The official response from Alex Skorkin has been that it is not supported:
I'm afraid that CodeRush Xpress is not going to be available in Visual Studio 2012.
However, it actually is and has been supported. Just download and install it as normal. A staff member has eventually confirmed this:
The latest version of CodeRush Xpress (11.2.13) supports Visual Studio 2012.
The official page also bears the following badge:
FULL SUPPORT for Visual Studio 2012
I'm afraid that CodeRush Xpress is not going to be available in Visual Studio 2012.
