Hi guys,
We are having an issue with a Visual Studio for Mac Extension build. Currently we have dependancies to MonoDevelop.Ide and MonoDevelop.Core and we have hardcoded version(17.0) the problem is that for example if Visual Studio for Mac 2022 Preview release new version17.2 our extensions stops working bacause it cannot find the dependancy with the correct version. So is there a way to build an Extension that would work in more than one Visual Studio for Mac 2022 release or we have to release new version of the Extension each time Visual Studio for MAC 2022 releases a new version?
Excuse me if this question is not for this group, just did not find specific group for VS for Mac.
I am having a i guess rather simple question though I just can't get it to work. I was trying to setup remote debugging via Soft Debugger and MonoDevelop. I added the "MONODEVELOP_SDB_TEST" variable to 1 or YES (different sourced advice to using different values i tried both though I do not think it make any difference). Unfortunately the "Custom Command Mono Soft Debugger " menu item, that is referenced everywhere i looked, never shows up. Some sources apparantly use MonoDevelop 4.0. Was the feature removed in later versions? I am using MonoDevelop 7.8.4.
Thank you in advance.
Hi guys,
Previously we were trying to migrate our VS for Mac extensions to VS for Mac 2022 so we kinda succseeded by following the steps from this wiki https://github.com/mhutch/MonoDevelop.AddinMaker/wiki/Migrating-AddInMaker-projects-to-support-Visual-Studio-2022-for-Mac-v17.x But one of our extensions uses gtk-sharp to show some custom dialogs within Visual Studio and this functionality is failing runtime after the migration with this error (System.TypeInitializationException: "The type initializer for 'Gtk.DialogAttribute' threw an exception." ---> System.DllNotFoundException: "Unable to load shared library 'libgtk-win32-2.0-0.dll' or one of its dependencies). This is working within VS for Mac 2019.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Hello again @mrward another question I have regarding Visual Studio for Mac 2022. So we have custom project templates that we install in VIsual Studio and they work fine and all excep the part when we try to open specific project template through a command in the menu in that case we it seems that the method we use to open the specific template fails and fallbacks to the latest used template. This is the line we use(that by the way was working fine in VS for Mac 2019): IdeApp.ProjectOperations.NewSolution("TemplateID", false);
The templates are visible in the VS new project wizard and are working correctly. So the issue should be just with line above.
So is there something that is changed in VS for Mac 2022 and is there a place we can track such changes to the extensibility model of VS for Mac.
Thank you in advance.

@AraHaan please be fair. System.Drawing.Common (on GDI+ or libgdiplus) is rather old and with badly maintained native bits. There are so many alternatives and many of them are much better. If you just want your decade old legacy code to be unchanged, that's a different story.
Which becomes a problem when you say, depend on things that the azure sdk depends on which then pulls in System.Drawing.Common because a few other dependencies uses apis that are no-opt and that specific code is practically unused in those dependencies as well (for example System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager, and/or System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter). But you do not depend on System.Drawing.Common directly though.
And by things that can be unused are things like CAS apis for example.
