If you have FIPS enabled even older versions might be problematic. 90% of my app would compile under 2010 and 2015; the module that did Excel interop OTOH was blacklisted by the compiler when all the FIPS settings were turned on. Normally I just remembered to sneakernet the bin/obj folders across the airgap with the code; as long as I didn't need to modify that project I was fine. On rare occasions when I did need to tinker with that part on the production system (sneaker-netting the real data across the airgap was forbidden; so at times i needed to use a copy of the production data on the destination network to debug things); my thankfully very helpful admin would turn it off on my PC for as long as the dev session lasted.

or....you could just turn the damn thing off in dev, like we do. It's the compiler that uses MD5 cryptography. The final binaries in Production are fine. --> food for thought.

Reread what I wrote. I do have it off on Dev. Except on a short term by exception basis I can't have it off on the production network; and I can't take the real data off it to dev. (Well theoretically we might be able to have a 2nd airgapped network with a copy of the production data on just for testing; but the FIPS requirement is from the data owner and we'd need to have that network equally locked down by default; so it wouldn't help.) That means that at times, when something goes wrong and the source of the problem isn't clear, I need to be able to run a debugger and occasionally modify code on the production network.

I'd be tempted to say VS2015, purely so you get the Xamarin support - that could be a good future direction to think about.
But...I've installed it but not used it yet, I'm still using 2013 Community edition and it works fine installed on an SSD. On a HDD? I'd have stuck with 2010 as it's a lot quicker to load!

Just kicked off the 2015 install, 8GB!

8GB's tiny!
Your broadband in Woking should be well and truly up to that: I get 40Mb/s in rural Wales and that's only a half hour download!

Right, does Cook get to 10,000 or does VS finish first?

I think the egg came first.

VS2015 loads just fine on my work laptop, and I am fairly certain your new computer is more powerful than mine (I think you got a new computer, could be mistaken) .
I have not used VS2010 for about 3 years now, on anything work related, and it would not even be considered an option at our shop now.
What do you use for your professional development ($$), the community edition? - Just curious, as I thought the community editions had limitations.
|
|
|
|

Yes - the community edition. It has limitations, but they are on the size of the organisation, not the software. The Express editions had limited functionality, which is why I paid for the Professional edition each time instead. The community edition says:
Any individual developer can use Visual Studio Community to create their own free or paid apps.
And
An unlimited number of users within an organization can use Visual Studio Community for the following scenarios: in a classroom learning environment, for academic research, or for contributing to open source projects.
For all other usage scenarios:
In non-enterprise organizations, up to five users can use Visual Studio Community. In enterprise organizations (meaning those with >250 PCs or >$1 Million US Dollars in annual revenue), no use is permitted beyond the open source, academic research, and classroom learning environment scenarios described above.
I'm an individual developer, and a non-enterprise organisation with less than 6 users so I qualify on both counts.

Go for Visual Studio 2015. Community Edition.

VS2015 Community, without question!

Definitely 2015 community, it's an MS v3 product (the vs2012/2013/2015 family); and is mature and stable as a result.
You also want to make sure you have a copy of 2015CE on hand while it's available; all the chatter about breaking up VS into smaller modules for a more flexible install means that the next version will probably be an MS v1.0 we'll want to avoid.
