Model Editor and the Update Model command are unavailable in XAF's v21.2.4 for .NET Framework apps in Visual Studio 2022

created 3 years ago (modified 3 years ago)

[DevExpress Support Team: CLONED FROM T1047452: Core - Visual Studio 2022 is unsupported in XAF / XPO v21.2.3 (ORM Data Model Designer, Model Editor and Solution Wizard)]

@Dennis i've installed 21.2.4 and i can't open the model editor, nor see the Update Model contextual menu items on the solution. I'm using VS2022 and i expected 21.2.4 will just work with it as the release notes said? I'm using .NET Framework XAF solution. Cheers!

    Hi!, i've found my problem: migrating the nuget references to 21.2.4 ( i was on 21.2.3) solved the problem. Now i could open the Model Editor just fine.

    Cheers!

    Hello, Franco.

    Thank you for your feedback. These design-time features are working fine in our tests with the latest Visual Studio 2022 builds and XAF .NET Framework apps.

    i've found my problem: migrating the nuget references to 21.2.4 ( i was on 21.2.3) solved the problem. Now i could open the Model Editor just fine.

    I am happy to hear that everything is working fine for you. Yes, using the Project Converter and updating NuGet packages is critical for any project upgrade. For more information, see the following: Project Converter | Updating NuGet Packages.

    From our experience, these issues may happen due to a corrupted Visual Studio installation regardless of the IDE or DevExpress version. Please try the following steps:

    I look forward to hearing from you.
