NI Measurement Studio for Legacy Environments and Languages
The Measurement Studio life cycle support policy states a commitment to support the three most recent versions of Microsoft Visual Studio—currently Visual Studio 2012, 2010, and 2008. When new versions of Visual Studio are released, Measurement Studio will add new feature support for these versions and remove support for legacy Visual Studio versions.
Legacy Environments and Languages
The following environments and languages are currently considered to be legacy:
- Visual Studio 6.0—all languages: Visual Basic 6.0 and Visual C++ 6.0
- Visual Studio 2003—all languages: Visual C++ MFC, Visual C#, and Visual Basic .NET
- Visual Studio 2005—all languages: Visual C++ MFC, Visual C#, and Visual Basic .NET
- Visual Studio 2008—Visual C++ MFC
- Visual Studio 2010—Visual C++ MFC
