Topic: ObjectARX Wizard and VS2010

How do I get ObjectARX Wizard to install with VS2010/utoCAD 2010? I get an error "Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 must be present on the target machine".

Install VS 2008

I think that it is not possible. The assistant is attached to the ObjectARX compiler version (acad2000-VS6, acad2007-VS2005 ...)

(sorry i do not speak English)

Install VS 2008

Sorry, that's what I wanted to explain.

Can it be the express version of 2008?

I guess not... I don't have VS2008

Have you tried the newest wizard? Not sure if it works with 2010 but I am using it successfully with 2011.
I found out about it here. http://through-the-interface.typepad.com/through_the_interface/2010/08/new-version-of-the-autocad-net-wizard-posted.html

Are you wanting to develop in .NET? If so my references were to the ObjectARX wizards C++
For .NET yes can use 2010

Here is another link to the .NET wizards with some extra stuff http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=1911627

Even if you get the wizard to work,  you still need to match the compiler with the cad version. You "must"  have VS2008 standard/Pro to target Acad 2010-11, VS2005 for Acad 2007-2009,Bricscad and VS2002 for Acad 04-6. Forget about express versions.

Now once you have the older VS versions installed, you can use the VS2010 editor and use specific compilers, but that's another story.
