"https://github.com/igorkulman/AutoCompleteBox">https://github.com/igorkulman/AutoCompleteBox</a>).
I use FAKE to do the building, so I set build.bat as the build
script. The build script starts but fails with</p>
<p>
"C:\projects\autocompletebox\AutoCompleteBox\AutoCompleteBox.csproj"
(Build target) (1) ->
C:\projects\autocompletebox\AutoCompleteBox\AutoCompleteBox.csproj(143,3):
error MSB4019: The imported project "C:\Program Files
(x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\WindowsXaml\v12.0\Microsoft.Windows.UI.Xaml.CSharp.targets"
was not found. Confirm that the path in the declaration is correct,
and that the file exists on disk.</p>
<p>Is building Windows 8 apps not supported?</p>
<p>Another issue us that the build script with this failure never
stops, I have to cancel it manually.</p></div>igortag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/324304532014-04-06T17:29:15Z2014-04-06T17:29:15ZBuilding Windows 8 project fails<div><p>Hi Igor,</p>
<p>To support building Windows Store apps we'd need to install
Visual Studio Express for Windows (<a href=
"http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/visual-studio-express-vs.aspx">http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/visual-studio-express-vs...</a>)
which strictly depends on Windows 8.1.</p>
<p>Right now we offer only one OS for build server - Windows Server
2012, however we are planning to add Windows Server 2012 R2 and
Windows 8.1 pretty soon. Looking at recent announcements from
Microsoft made on Windows Build I think demand for building Metro
apps will grow and we have a strong commitment to support it. Stay
tuned!</p></div>Feodor Fitsnertag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/324304532015-05-10T14:21:36Z2015-05-10T14:21:36ZBuilding Windows 8 project fails<div><p>Are there any updates on this?</p></div>appveyor-account
