Summary

A user should be able to select the version of VS they want UA to use for loading project files.

Motivation and goals

VS can be installed side by side and multiple versions can exist on the same machine at a time. Since UA will use VS locations to locate target files, this can pose problems when only one version has a required workload.

In scope

  • Pass in VS path via command line
  • Provide selection step for VS version if not available and multiple exist

Out of scope

  • None known

Risks / unknowns

  • Many users appreciate the non-interactive mode. There should be a way to continue using UA in non-interactive mode with multiple VS instances available

Examples

upgrade-assistant upgrade [path] --vs-path [path]
