Conversion between vs05 vs08 vs10 Projects

Conversion between vs05 vs08 vs10 Projects

After vs2010 is installed, the previous vs2005 project or vs2008 project will be forcibly converted to the vs2010 project, causing trouble for a computer without vs2010 to be unable to open a later version project.

Open the solution file (. sln) in Notepad ):

The first two rows

Vs2010

Microsoft Visual Studio solution file, format version // Development Tool

Project ("{FAE04EC0-301F-11D3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC}") = ......

......

Vs2008/sharpdevelop

Microsoft Visual Studio solution file, format version // Development Tool
# Sharpdevelop 3.2.0.5777 // Development Tool

Project ("{FAE04EC0-301F-11D3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC}") = ......

......

Vs2005

Microsoft Visual Studio solution file, format version // Development Tool
Project ("{FAE04EC0-301F-11D3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC}") = ......

......

Open the project file (. vcproj) in Notepad)

Vs2010:

<? XML version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"?>
<Project toolsversion = "4.0" defaulttargets = "build" xmlns = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
......

Vs2005

<? XML version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"?>

<Project defaulttargets = "build" xmlns = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">

......

Vs2008

<? XML version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"?>

<Project toolsversion = "3.5" defaulttargets = "build" xmlns = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">

......

After the configuration is changed to a matched version, you can open it. (# Add failed to open 10 projects with 05. Because the file type of 10 is. vcxproj, you need to find another method)
