Visual Studio 2019 Install Failing

[ToddTaylor]

When attempting to install the Object Exporter in Visual Studio 2019 (16.0.0 Preview 1.1), an error occurs with the following message:

12/27/2018 2:32:30 PM - Extension cannot be installed to the following products due to missing prerequisites: 12/27/2018 2:32:30 PM - Microsoft Visual Studio Enterprise 2019 12/27/2018 2:32:30 PM - ------------------------------------------------------- 12/27/2018 2:32:30 PM - Identifier : Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.CoreEditor 12/27/2018 2:32:30 PM - Name : Visual Studio core editor 12/27/2018 2:32:30 PM - Version : [11.0,16.0) 12/27/2018 2:32:30 PM - Error : The prerequisite version specified does not match the version installed 12/27/2018 2:32:30 PM - 12/27/2018 2:32:30 PM - System.InvalidOperationException: No modifications could be applied.

The fix is very simple... just some minor tweaks to the .vsixmanifest:

Hi - can you please provide an updated build for 2019 as I tried the fixes suggested but couldn't get it to compile.

I will try and provide a 2019 build in the next couple of weeks.

Dunno if this is in bad taste, but in the meantime I've been using this, which works at runtime instead of being a plugin.

It is not enough to change .vsixmanifest only. You should do same things for catalog.json as well.

I can't install for VS2019 either:

Hi! Is there any update on when the extension will work "out of the box"?

I updated the file - but it appears I need a license to Telerik.WinControls.dll in order to do the build?

Nevermind my last comment I just had to unblock the downloaded files before the build. However, I know have the same issue as mzhukovs - prerequisites that cannot be resolved.

Looks like a pull request has been pending for a little over a week that might fix this issue. Hopefully gets merged soon. Looks like a great product.

Is there any news on this topic. When installing the extension only vs2017 is proposed.

Is this fixed? I tried the latest version and sadly it doesn't work in VS2019 such a shame
