		Hi, 
I have done some more work with a U++ test app using a managed .Net wrapper library for accessing a database with much business logic. It works ok. I am very slowly beginning to get a feel for U++ and theIde. But I keep thinking that a VS 2010 solution has a few extra things to offer for such a combination. 
So I was wondering if you ever considered U++ for a devstudio solution? 
I realize this question is on thin ice, given the work you have put in theIde, packages, layout designer and so much more.  
I am not advocating devstudio, by no means, but I'd like to be able to build and debug U++ in a devstudio solution. 
 
Sincerely, 
Conrad

Hello, Conrad. 
 
From my perspective, there is possibility to generate Visual Studio project/solution files, with using CMake. 
I created following topic for this purpose, which shows the possibility to create similar CMakeLists.txt files for U++ packages: 
Building TheIDE with using CMake. 
 
But you need to consider, that this is manual solution. Therefore, when contents of U++ packages updates, you need to update your CMakeLists.txt files also. 
 
Instead, I suggest you to create Visual Studio solution for managed .Net wrapper library only (in case, if you need IntelliSense for .Net Framework libraries) and test it outside of U++ packages.
