It's a quote[^]

They don't guarantee that with release versions either.

Are you referring to my Q&A questions? If so, no, that's because I'm finding myself kicking and screaming at MVC and EF and Razor, which is all a pile of rubbish IMO.

It's only for test - in a VM. to see what we got...

Yes. They only took one day to install.

I installed on on my MacBook using Parallels 10 - didn't take too long, maybe a couple of hours 
I really like the look of MVC6 although I'm going to have to change some of my existing code around routing.
I also think that the project.json file format makes sense but they could probably do with some kind of GUI for editing it in the final version (especially for large and/or complex project.json files).
How do you know so much about swallows? Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.

I'm going to do the same.
Windows 10 is already installed. It took about 40 minutes to download it and VirtualBox and install both. So it was the VS installation that took so long?
|
|
|
|
|
Definitely...It is a two part install - the first for the Visual Studio and the second is for the mobile platform...
Took almost 6 hours (including download)...

I feel your pain. I had to update to SP 1 for W7 to install VS 2013 Community. That wasn't so bad because there's a full ISO and specific processor EXE's you can download.
But VS 2013 Community, there's no such thing, so it took 4 hours on my laptop, it'll take another 4 hours on my desktop. Couldn't find a a full download file for the thing.
If I want to install it in a VM, again, sit and wait around for the web installer.
I hate web-based installers.

There is no ISO (full download) for Visual Studio, but if you have an MSDN subscription (and even then only for final products)...

Indeed. I do (or did actually) have an MSDN subscription, so I happily have 2005, 8, 10, 12 full ISO's.

Which remind me that I have a MSDN subscription - so checked. I was wrong - there is 2015 preview ISO, but no 2013 Community at all...I was just an idiot not to think about it...

I am getting desperate - so if this post is too far OT , my apology.
I have successfully downloaded and unzipped Code:Blocks for Arduino.
Call me stupid - <b>but I cannot figure out HOW to actually install it!</b>
There is no Setup.exe or anything anywhere on web on how to install it, nada.
I got regular C:B running but cannot find "Arduino plug-in" for that either.
On top of all that - two Code:Blocks forums do not return my registration, so I cannot post this to them, bummer!
Please help frustrated OF.
Thanks
Cheers Vaclav

I think your confusion might be because the file downloads as a '7-Zip' archive instead of a plain old Zip...you need to download the utility at http://www.7-zip.org/[^] to extract the files out of the 'CodeBlocks-Arduino-20140626.7z' archive.
Simply extract that file to a folder and you can double-click the 'codeblocks.exe' file to run it...no Windows installer provided.

One other thing...if you're looking for alternatives to the Arduino IDE, you could try Visual Micro[^].
|
|
|
|
|
If you're going to be working with Arduino I would recommend Atmel Studio 6.2[^].
New version: WinHeist Version 2.1.0
There's a fine line between crazy and free spirited and it's usually a prescription.
I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

Thanks, I just did not want to dwell on this , but since you mentioned it
a. I cannot get VS 6.2 to keep my XP from crashing. I have been round with ATmel, VisualMICro and Wholetomato and still cannot find what is wrong with my setup.The last was reported by Windoze that i have something wrong with my video card. I have no other problems with my PC.
I just given up on this to ever run (again) on my current PC.
b.I do not know how to use VM by itself. I do not have ANY recent MS VC software.
c. I did load the funky zip file and there is no codeblocks.exe there.
I'll try the archive next .
