97
Microsoft first released Visual
Studio (codenamed Boston, for the city of the same name,
thus beginning the VS codenames related to places) in 1997, bundling many of
its programming tools together for the first time. Visual Studio 97 came in two
editions: Visual Studio Professional and Visual Studio Enterprise, the
professional edition has three CDs, and the enterprise on four CDs. It included
Visual J++ 1.1 for Java programming and introduced Visual InterDev for creating
dynamically generated web sites using Active Server Pages. There was a single
companion CD that contained the Microsoft
Developer Network library.
Visual Studio 97 was Microsoft's
first attempt at using the same development environment for multiple languages.
Visual J++, InterDev, and the MSDN
Library had all been using the same
'environment', called Developer Studio.
Visual Studio was also sold as a
bundle with the separate IDEs used for Visual C++, Visual Basic and Visual
FoxPro.
6.0
(1998)
The next version, version 6.0
(codenamed Aspen, after the ski resort
in Colorado), was released in June 1998 and is the last version to run on the Windows 9x
platform. Each version of each language in part also settled to v6.0, including
Visual J++ which was prior v1.1, and Visual InterDev at the 1st release. The v6
edition of Microsoft was the core environment for the next four releases to
provide programmers with an integrated look-alike platform. This led Microsoft
to transition the development on the platform independent .NET Framework.
Visual Studio 6.0 was the last
version to include Visual J++,which Microsoft removed as part of a settlement
with Sun Microsystems that required Microsoft Internet Explorer not to provide
support for the Java virtual machine.
Visual Studio 6.0 came in two
editions: Professional and Enterprise. The Enterprise edition contained extra
features not found in Professional edition, including:
- Application Performance Explorer
- Automation Manager
- Microsoft Visual Modeler
- RemAuto Connection Manager
- Visual Studio Analyzer
Visual Studio was also sold as a
bundle with the separate IDEs used for Visual C++, Visual Basic and Visual FoxPro.
.NET
2002
Microsoft released Visual Studio
.NET (VS.NET), codenamed Rainier (for Washington's Mount Rainier),in February 2002 (the beta version was released via Microsoft
Developer Network in 2001). The biggest change was
the introduction of a managed code
development environment using the .NET Framework. Programs developed using .NET
are not compiled to machine language
(like C++ is, for example) but instead to a format called Microsoft
Intermediate Language (MSIL) or Common
Intermediate Language (CIL). When a CIL application
executes, it is compiled
while being executed into the appropriate machine
language for the platform it is being executed on, thereby making code portable
across several platforms. Programs compiled into CIL can be executed only on
platforms which have an implementation of Common
Language Infrastructure. It is
possible to run CIL programs in Linux or Mac OS X using non-Microsoft .NET implementations like Mono and DotGNU.
This was the first version of Visual
Studio to require an NT-based
Windows platform.[114]
The installer enforces this requirement.
Visual Studio .NET 2002 shipped in
four editions: Academic, Professional, Enterprise Developer, and Enterprise
Architect. Microsoft introduced C# (C-sharp), a new programming language, that targets .NET.
It also introduced the successor to Visual J++ called Visual J#. Visual J#
programs use Java's language-syntax. However, unlike Visual J++ programs,
Visual J# programs can only target the .NET Framework, not the Java Virtual Machine that all other Java tools target.
Visual Basic changed drastically to
fit the new framework, and the new version was called Visual Basic .NET.
Microsoft also added extensions to C++, called Managed
Extensions for C++, so .NET programs could be created
in C++.
Visual Studio .NET can produce
applications targeting Windows (using the Windows Forms part of the .NET
Framework), the Web (using ASP.NET and Web Services)
and, with an add-in, portable devices (using the .NET Compact Framework).
The Visual Studio .NET environment
was rewritten to partially use .NET. All languages are versions of Visual
Studio, it has a cleaner interface and greater cohesiveness. It is also more
customizable with tool windows that automatically hide when not in use. While Visual
FoxPro 7 started out as part of Visual Studio .NET 2002, and early VS betas
allowed debugging inside VFP-based DLLs, it was removed before release to
follow its own development track.
The internal version number of
Visual Studio .NET 2002 is version 7.0. Microsoft released Service Pack 1 for
Visual Studio .NET 2002 in March 2005.
.NET
2003
In April 2003, Microsoft introduced
a minor upgrade to Visual Studio .NET called Visual Studio .NET 2003, codenamed
Everett (for the city of the same name). It includes an upgrade to the .NET Framework, version
1.1, and is the first release to support developing programs for mobile
devices, using ASP.NET or the .NET Compact Framework. The Visual C++ compiler's
standards-compliance improved, especially in the area of partial
template specialization. Visual
C++ Toolkit 2003 is a version of the same C++ compiler shipped with Visual
Studio .NET 2003 without the IDE that Microsoft made freely available. As of
2010 it is no longer available and the Express Editions have superseded it. The
internal version number of Visual Studio .NET 2003 is version 7.1 while the
file format version is 8.0.
Visual Studio .NET 2003 shipped in
five editions: Academic, Standard, Professional, Enterprise Developer, and
Enterprise Architect. The Visual Studio .NET 2003 Enterprise Architect edition
includes an implementation of Microsoft Visio
2002's modeling technologies, including tools for creating Unified
Modeling Language-based visual representations of an
application's architecture, and an object-role modeling (ORM) and logical database-modeling solution.
"Enterprise Templates" were also introduced, to help larger
development teams standardize coding styles and enforce policies around
component usage and property settings.
Service Pack 1 was released 13
September 2006.
2005
Visual Studio 2005, codenamed Whidbey
(a reference to Whidbey Island in Puget Sound region),[citation needed] was released
online in October 2005 and to retail stores a few weeks later. Microsoft
removed the ".NET" moniker from Visual Studio 2005 (as well as every
other product with .NET in its name), but it still primarily targets the .NET
Framework, which was upgraded to version 2.0. It is the last version available
for Windows 2000 and also the last version to be able to target Windows 98,
Windows Me
and Windows NT 4.0 for C++ applications.
Visual Studio 2005's internal version
number is 8.0 while the file format version is 9.0. Microsoft released Service
Pack 1 for Visual Studio 2005 on 14 December 2006. An additional update for
Service Pack 1 that offers Windows Vista compatibility was made available on 3
June 2007.
Visual Studio 2005 was upgraded to
support all the new features introduced in .NET Framework 2.0, including
generics and ASP.NET 2.0. The IntelliSense
feature in Visual Studio was upgraded for generics and new project types were
added to support ASP.NET web services. Visual Studio 2005 additionally
introduces support for a new task-based build platform called Microsoft Build
Engine (MSBuild)
which employs a new XML-based project file format.[122]
Visual Studio 2005 also includes a local web server, separate from IIS, that can host ASP.NET applications during development and
testing. It also supports all SQL Server 2005 databases. Database designers were upgraded to support
the ADO.NET 2.0,
which is included with .NET Framework 2.0. C++ also got a similar upgrade with
the addition of C++/CLI which is slated to replace the use of Managed
C++. Other new features of Visual
Studio 2005 include the "Deployment Designer" which allows
application designs to be validated before deployments, an improved environment
for web publishing when combined with ASP.NET 2.0 and load testing to see application
performance under various sorts of user loads. Starting with the 2005 edition,
Visual Studio also added extensive 64-bit support. While the host development
environment itself is only available as a 32-bit application, Visual C++ 2005
supports compiling for x86-64 (AMD64 and Intel 64) as well as IA-64 (Itanium). The Platform SDK
included 64-bit compilers and 64-bit versions of the libraries.
Microsoft also announced Visual
Studio Tools for Applications
as the successor to Visual
Basic for Applications (VBA) and
VSA (Visual Studio for Applications). VSTA 1.0 was released to manufacturing
along with Office 2007. It is included with Office 2007 and is also part of the
Visual Studio 2005 SDK. VSTA consists of a customized IDE, based on the Visual
Studio 2005 IDE, and a runtime that can be embedded in applications to expose
its features via the .NET object model. Office 2007 applications continue to
integrate with VBA, except for InfoPath 2007 which integrates with VSTA.
Version 2.0 of VSTA (based on Visual Studio 2008) was released in April 2008.
It is significantly different from the first version, including features such
as dynamic programming and support for WPF, WCF, WF, LINQ, and .NET 3.5 Framework.
2008
Visual Studio 2008, and Visual
Studio Team System 2008 codenamed Orcas (a reference to Orcas Island,
also an island in Puget Sound region, like Whidbey for the previous 2005 release), were released
to MSDN subscribers on 19 November 2007 alongside .NET Framework 3.5. The
source code for the Visual Studio 2008 IDE is available under a shared source
license to some of Microsoft's partners and ISVs. Microsoft released Service Pack 1 for Visual Studio 2008
on 11 August 2008. The internal version number of Visual Studio 2008 is version
9.0 while the file format version is 10.0. Visual Studio 2008 is the last
version to support targeting Windows 2000
for C++ applications.
Visual Studio 2008 is focused on
development of Windows Vista, 2007 Office system, and Web applications. For visual
design, a new Windows
Presentation Foundation visual
designer and a new HTML/CSS editor influenced by Microsoft
Expression Web are included. J# is not included. Visual Studio 2008
requires .NET 3.5 Framework and by default configures compiled assemblies to
run on .NET Framework 3.5, but it also supports multi-targeting which lets the
developers choose which version of the .NET Framework (out of 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, Silverlight CoreCLR
or .NET Compact Framework) the assembly runs on. Visual Studio 2008 also
includes new code analysis tools, including the new Code Metrics
tool (only in Team Edition and Team Suite Edition). For Visual C++,
Visual Studio adds a new version of Microsoft
Foundation Classes (MFC 9.0) that adds support for the
visual styles and UI controls introduced with Windows Vista.
For native and managed code interoperability, Visual C++ introduces the
STL/CLR, which is a port of the C++ Standard
Template Library (STL) containers and algorithms to managed code.
STL/CLR defines STL-like containers, iterators
and algorithms that work on C++/CLI managed objects.
Visual Studio 2008 features include an XAML-based designer (codenamed Cider), workflow designer, LINQ to SQL designer (for defining the type mappings and object
encapsulation for SQL Server data), XSLT debugger, JavaScript
Intellisense
support, JavaScript Debugging support, support for UAC manifests,
a concurrent build system, among others.[135]
It ships with an enhanced set of UI widgets, both for Windows Forms
and WPF. It also includes a multithreaded build engine (MSBuild) to
compile multiple source files (and build the executable file) in a project
across multiple threads simultaneously. It also includes support for compiling icon resources in PNG format, introduced in Windows Vista. An updated XML Schema
designer was released separately some time after the release of Visual Studio
2008.
Visual
Studio Debugger includes features targeting easier
debugging of multi-threaded applications. In debugging mode, in the Threads
window, which lists all the threads, hovering over a thread displays the stack
trace of that thread in tooltips. The threads can directly be named and flagged for easier
identification from that window itself. In addition, in the code window, along
with indicating the location of the currently executing instruction in the
current thread, the currently executing instructions in other threads are also
pointed out. The Visual
Studio debugger supports integrated debugging of
the .NET 3.5 Framework Base Class Library (BCL) which can dynamically download the BCL source code
and debug symbols and allow stepping into the BCL source during debugging. As
of 2010 a limited subset of the BCL source is available, with more library
support planned for later.
2010
The Visual Studio 2010 IDE was redesigned which, according to Microsoft,
clears the UI organization and "reduces clutter and complexity." The new IDE better supports multiple document
windows and floating tool windows, while offering better multi-monitor support. The IDE shell
has been rewritten using the Windows
Presentation Foundation (WPF),
whereas the internals have been redesigned using Managed
Extensibility Framework (MEF)
that offers more extensibility points than previous versions of the IDE that
enabled add-ins to modify the behavior of the IDE.
Visual Studio 2010 comes with .NET Framework 4
and supports developing applications targeting Windows 7.
It supports IBM DB2 and Oracle
databases, in addition to Microsoft SQL Server. It has integrated support for developing Microsoft Silverlight applications, including an interactive designer. Visual
Studio 2010 offers several tools to make parallel programming simpler: in addition to the Parallel Extensions for the .NET Framework and the Parallel Patterns Library
for native code, Visual Studio 2010 includes tools for debugging parallel applications.
The new tools allow the visualization of parallel Tasks and their runtime stacks. Tools
for profiling parallel applications can be used for visualization of thread
wait-times and thread migrations across processor cores. Intel and Microsoft
have jointly pledged support for a new Concurrency Runtime in Visual Studio
2010 and Intel has launched parallelism support in Parallel Studio
as an add-on for Visual Studio.
The Visual Studio 2010 code editor
now highlights references; whenever a symbol is selected, all other usages of
the symbol are highlighted. It also offers a Quick Search feature to incrementally search
across all symbols in C++, C# and VB.NET projects. Quick Search supports
substring matches and camelCase searches. The Call Hierarchy feature allows the
developer to see all the methods that are called from a current method as well
as the methods that call the current one.[150]
IntelliSense
in Visual Studio supports a consume-first mode which developers can opt
into. In this mode, IntelliSense does not auto-complete identifiers; this
allows the developer to use undefined identifiers (like variable or method
names) and define those later. Visual Studio 2010 can also help in this by
automatically defining them, if it can infer their types from usage. Current
versions of Visual Studio have a known bug which makes IntelliSense unusable
for projects using pure C (not C++).
Visual Studio 2010 features a new Help System replacing the MSDN Library
viewer. The Help System is no longer based on Microsoft Help 2
and does not use Microsoft Document Explorer. Dynamic help containing links to
related help topics based on where the developer was in the IDE has been
removed in the shipping product, but can be added back using a download from
Microsoft.
Visual Studio 2010 no longer
supports development for Windows Mobile prior to Windows Phone 7.
Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1 was released in March 2011.
Ultimate
2010
Visual Studio Ultimate 2010 replaces
Visual Studio 2008 Team Suite. It includes new modeling tools, such as the Architecture
Explorer, which graphically displays projects and classes and the relationships
between them. It supports UML activity diagram, component diagram, (logical) class
diagram, sequence diagram, and use case diagram. Visual Studio Ultimate 2010 also includes Test
Impact Analysis which provides hints on which test cases are impacted by
modifications to the source code, without actually running the test cases. This
speeds up testing by avoiding running unnecessary test cases.
Visual Studio Ultimate 2010 also
includes a historical debugger for managed code
called IntelliTrace. Unlike a traditional debugger that records only the
currently active stack, IntelliTrace records all events, such as prior function
calls, method parameters, events and exceptions. This allows the code execution
to be rewound in case a breakpoint was not set where the error occurred.
Debugging with IntelliTrace causes the application to run more slowly than
debugging without it, and uses more memory as additional data needs to be
recorded. Microsoft allows configuration of how much data should be recorded,
in effect, allowing developers to balance the speed of execution and resource
usage. The Lab Management component of Visual Studio Ultimate 2010 uses
virtualization to create a similar execution environment for testers and
developers. The virtual machines are tagged with checkpoints which can later be investigated
for issues, as well as to reproduce the issue. Visual Studio Ultimate 2010 also
includes the capability to record test runs that capture the specific state of
the operating environment as well as the precise steps used to run the test.
These steps can then be played back to reproduce issues.
2012
Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 logo
The final build of Visual Studio
2012 was announced on 1 August 2012 and the official launch event was held on
12 September 2012.
Unlike prior versions, Visual Studio
2012 cannot record and play macros and the macro editor has been removed.
New features include support for WinRT and C++/CX
(Component Extensions) and C++ AMP (GPGPU programming) Semantic Colorization.
On 16 September 2011, a complete
'Developer Preview' of Visual Studio 11 was published on Microsoft's website.
Visual Studio 11 Developer Preview requires Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2,
Windows 8, or later operating systems. Versions of Microsoft
Foundation Class Library (MFC) and
C runtime (CRT) included with this release cannot produce software that is
compatible with Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 except by using native
multi-targeting and foregoing the newest libraries, compilers, and headers.
However, on 15 June 2012, a blog post on the VC++ Team blog announced that
based on customer feedback, Microsoft would re-introduce native support for
Windows XP targets (though not for XP as a development platform) in a version
of Visual C++ to be released later in the fall of 2012. "Visual Studio
2012 Update 1" (Visual Studio 2012.1) was released in November 2012. This
update added support for Windows XP targets and also added other new tools and
features (e.g. improved diagnostics and testing support for Windows Store
apps).
On 24 August 2011, a blog post by
Sumit Kumar, a Program Manager on the Visual C++ team, listed some of the
features of the upcoming version of the Visual Studio C++ IDE:
- Semantic colorization: Improved syntax coloring, various user-defined or default colors for C++ syntax such as macros, enumerations, typenames and functions.
- Reference highlighting: Selection of a symbol highlights all of the references to that symbol within scope.
- New Solution Explorer: The new Solution Explorer allows for visualization of class and file hierarchies within a solution/project. It can search for calls to functions and uses of classes.
- Automatic display of IntelliSense list: IntelliSense is automatically displayed whilst typing code, as opposed to previous versions where it had to be explicitly invoked through use of certain operators (i.e. the scope operator (::)) or shortcut keys (Ctrl-Space or Ctrl-J).
- Member list filtering: IntelliSense uses fuzzy logic to determine which functions/variables/types to display in the list.
- Code snippets: Code snippets are included in IntelliSense to automatically generate relevant code based on the user's parameters, custom code snippets can be created.
The source code of Visual Studio
2012 consists of approximately 50 million lines of code.
Interface
backlash
During Visual Studio 11 beta,
Microsoft eliminated the use of color within tools except in cases where color
is used for notification or status change purposes. However, the use of color
was returned after feedback demanding more contrast, differentiation, clarity
and "energy" in the user interface.
In Visual Studio 2012 RC, a major
change to the interface is the use of all-caps menu bar, as part of the
campaign to keep Visual Studio consistent with the direction of other Microsoft
user interfaces, and to provide added structure to the top menu bar area. The
redesign was criticized for being hard to read, and going against the trends
started by developers to use CamelCase
to make words stand out better. Some speculated that the root cause of the
redesign was to incorporate the simplistic look and feel of Metro programs.
However, there exists a Windows Registry
option to allow users to disable the all-caps interface.
2013
The preview for Visual Studio 2013
was announced at the Build 2013 conference and made available on 26 June 2013.
The Visual Studio 2013 RC (Release Candidate) was made available to developers
on MSDN on 9 September 2013.
The final release of Visual Studio
2013 became available for download on 17 October 2013 along with .NET 4.5.1.
Visual Studio 2013 officially launched on 13 November 2013 at a virtual launch
event keynoted by S. Somasegar and hosted on events.visualstudio.com. "Visual Studio 2013 Update 1" (Visual Studio
2013.1) was released on 20 January 2014. Visual Studio 2013.1 is a targeted
