<p>At a glance seems its current license doesn't allow production
use.</p></div>Feodor Fitsnertag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/348235462014-10-03T03:24:57Z2014-10-03T03:24:57ZVisual Studio 2014<div><p>Hi Feodor,</p>
<p>Thanks for your consideration. My understanding is that
disclaimer is stock for all "CTPs" and in this case case this is
version 3 of the CTP, which is quite mature (<a href=

<p>Are you concerned that you should not use it on appveyor because
that would constitute "production" use or because I should not be
building with it? If the former then we should likely remove the
"2013 Nov CTP".</p></div>danetag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/348235462014-10-03T03:44:26Z2014-10-03T03:44:26ZVisual Studio 2014<div><p>Good question though. Personally, I think we could have it for
"testing", but going forward we'd switch to Express edition when
it's RTMed.</p>
<p>My other concern is adding it to a standard worker image that,
potentially, may cause some issues/incompatibilities. Maybe we
could deploy it on some "test" image first to see how it
goes?..</p></div>Feodor Fitsnertag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/348235462014-10-03T04:13:57Z2014-10-03T04:13:57ZVisual Studio 2014<div><p>So far I've run Visual Studio 2013 and this "14 CTP 3" on the

binaries built with "14 CTP 3" without a problem on Appveyor simply
by installing the runtime during setup: <a href=

<p>Any update on Visual Studio 14 support? Is this something you
think you will be able to add soon? Let me know how I can help make
this happen.</p>

<p>There is a new image available <code>Visual Studio 2014
CTP4</code> with VS 2014 installed. You can choose that image on
Environment tab of project settings or in
<code>appveyor.yml</code>:</p>
<pre>
<code>os: Visual Studio 2014 CTP4</code>
</pre>
<p>There is one caveat though - new environment does not support
custom images yet (there is only one image). That means all builds
targeting <code>Visual Studio 2014 CTP4</code> image will be run on
Azure (slower).</p>
<p>Let me know how it goes.</p></div>Feodor Fitsnertag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/348235462014-10-24T05:08:48Z2014-10-24T05:08:48ZVisual Studio 2014<div><p>Oh my. It works (<a href=

<p>There is VS 2015 image available. You might want to give it a
try and if that works we could decommission VS 2014 CTP image.</p>

<p>Is this 2015 Preview image running on Azure or the new Hyper-V
env?</p>
<p>Either way I’ll give it a try and let you know how things
go.</p>

2015 Preview worked great for the first project I tried it
with.<br>
Concerning decommission of VS 2014 CTP image, we still need some
time to upgrade and test all our projects with 2015, but I suppose
that to happen relatively fast, once we are back to full speed next
year.</p>
<p>I hope you find the time to enjoy the holidays and relax a
bit.<br>
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.<br>

need it.</p>
<p>Happy Holidays you too!</p>
