### Set Up New Development Machine
|
|
|
|
VS 2019 Workloads installed must include .NET desktop development and VS extension development.
|
|
|
|
Requires VS Installer Projects [extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=VisualStudioClient.MicrosoftVisualStudio2017InstallerProjects).
|
|
|
|
May need to temporarily comment out following at bottom of BismNormalizer.csproj to load project into VS for 1st time. After 1st successful load, add it back.
|
|
|
|
`Import Project="..\packages\MSBuild.Extension.Pack.1.8.0\build\net40\MSBuild.Extension.Pack.targets"`
|
|
|
|
Update: 4/23/2018: AMO libraries are now accessed through NuGet references, so no longer necessary to install AMO client libraries from the [MSI](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/analysis-services/analysis-services-data-providers).
|
|
|
|
Do a Release build from the command-line to set up cross project references for the 1st time (see command above) - and then close and reopen VS.
