What's New in Visual Studio

Apple Developer Accounts

This preview includes initial support for Individual AppStoreConnect accounts which are needed for non-Enterprise Apple Developers.

  • To add an Individual account, open Tools\Options and then select the "Apple Accounts" item located in the Xamarin section. In the "Apple Accounts", click the "Add Account..." button and select "Add Individual Account" and enter the AppStoreConnect API Key information.
  • Once the account is created, certificates and provisioning profiles can be accessed via the "View Details" button.
  • Known Issues:
    • Automatic Provisioning may not work correctly for Individual accounts in some cases. To work around this, follow the instructions for manual provisioning.

Audio Cues in the Editor

  • We've introduced new audio cues in the Visual Studio editor. When enabled, Visual Studio will play sounds when the editing caret arrives on a line with a breakpoint, an error or a warning. By default, Visual Studio uses the same sounds as Visual Studio Code, but these sounds can be configured to the user's preference.
  • To enable audio cues, head to Tools\Options and look for "Preview Features" under Environment. In the Preview Features, the new option is "Enable Audio Cues for the editor". If it's checked, the next time Visual Studio is started, the sounds will play.
  • To configure individual audio cues, tap the Windows key in either Windows 10 or Windows 11 and search for "Change system sounds". Under the Program Events, look for the "Microsoft Visual Studio" node in the Program Events tree. The new events are "Line has Breakpoint", "Line has Error" and "Line has Warning". This can be used to customize or disable individual sounds.

Sound Control Panel in Windows

Git Tooling

Line-staging support, a.k.a interactive staging with the ability to stage specific lines and/or chunks of code right from the editor and the diff view. To get started, stage one of your recent changes by selecting the corresponding color margin and utilizing the Peek Difference UI to stage your change.

Read our blog post to learn more and share your feedback.

Line-staging support

C++

  • The Arm64EC toolchain is no longer marked as experimental and is ready for production use.
  • The Visual Studio Terminal can now be used as an SSH client with your stored SSH connections. With the C++ for Linux Tools installed, open the Terminal tool window and the Terminal dropdown will be populated with your stored connections. If selected, they will open a new Terminal window inside Visual Studio and a pseudoterminal on your remote system. Control characters, colors, and cursor positional awareness are all supported.
  • Visual Studio can now add Unreal Engine class templates for your UE projects. To try this feature, ensure "IDE support for Unreal Engine" is selected in the "Game development with C++" workload within the VS installer. When working on a UE project, right click in the project or a folder/filter and select Add > UE Class.
  • Go to Definition will now remember the prior signature and navigate accordingly when a better match is not available (e.g. after you manually changed the signature of one of the pair).
  • Improved responsiveness of Go To All. Previously, results appeared after you stopped typing. In the new experience, results will show as you type.
  • In contexts requiring enum type completion (e.g. assignments to enum variables, case labels, returning enum type, etc.) the autocompletion list will now be filtered to just the matching enumerators and related constructs.
  • Added NuGet PackageReference support for C++/CLI MSBuild projects targeting .NET Core. This change was made to unblock mixed codebases from being able to adopt .NET Core. This does not work for other C++ project types or any C++ project types targeting .NET Framework. There are no plans to extend PackageReference support to additional C++ scenarios as the team is working on separate experiences involving vcpkg which will work for non-MSBuild scenarios and add additional functionality.
  • Added a Serial Monitor window for embedded development, available through Debug > Windows > Serial Monitor.
  • Improved C++ indexing by ~66% compared to 17.2.
  • Updated the version of CMake shipped with Visual Studio to version 3.23. See the CMake 3.23 release notes for details of what is available.
  • Upgraded the versions of LLVM tools shipped with Visual Studio to v14. See the LLVM and Clang release notes for details of what is available.
  • Updated the side by side Dev 16.11 C++ Toolset to version 14.29.30145.00. The latest version of the Dev 16.11 C++ Toolset contains important bug fixes, including fixing all remaining C++20 defect reports. For information about bug fixes, including C++20 defect reports in Dev 16.11, please see Visual Studio 2019 version 16.11.14 release notes
  • We have made various improvements to the in-editor experience of C++ modules. "we're continuously working on improving the quality of the experience but encourage you to try in 17.3 and report remaining issues through Developer Community.

Debugging & Diagnostics

  • Diagnostics Analysis tools now include an analyzer that lists the unique call stacks in a memory dump along with the threads executing them.
  • IEnumerable visualizers now support data export in CSV format. Just use the dropdown on the top right corner and select CSV.The Visualizer will also allow you to filter data based desired filter string. The Visualizer will return all the rows that contain a value that matches the filter string. You can also export the filtered and sorted results in CSV/Excel format.

Visualizer_Filter

  • We also added the themeing support for IEnumerable and DataTable/DataSet visualizer, so both of these visualizer window are themed for Visual Studio’s dark, light and blue theme.

DataSet Visualizer

  • Starting 17.3 preview 3 debugger will automatically reload pervious decompiled artifacts like symbols and PDB files. If you choose to decompile at any previous session the artifacts will automatically be reloaded for all the next sessions and will get you to the decompiled sources faster in External Sources node. This will still honor your JMC settings.
  • Debugger now provides a new option to disable the load of NGEN or ready to load (RDR) images for managed code. You can change the settings under Tools > Options> Debugging > General > Prevent using precompiled images on module load or you can also easily search the settings using any of the keyword in the Visual Studio search bar.
  • You will now see the Exception stack frames inside the Call Stack window, so for all async exceptions, you can quickly load symbols or locate sources and go directly to the site of the exception. Exception stack frames inside the Call Stack window will provide functionalities of the actual call stack.Features like automatic navigation, quickly switching back and forth between frames, and symbol load / decompile options to get back to the source code where the exception was thrown.

Exception Stack

General

  • GitHub accounts now roam across machines when signing in on a new machine with the same personalization account (account shown in the top left of the account settings dialog).

Installer

  • Learn more about Teams Toolkit at https://aka.ms/teams-toolkit-vs-docs

.NET Productivity

  • In C# 10 we introduced Global Usings. Global Usings adds usings to the top of a file invisibly and automatically. We now surface an icon at the top of your file to let you know if Global Usings are active in your file and if you click on the icon, it will show you what those Global Usings are. Global Usings

  • Peek Definition now supports source link, embedded source, and decompiled sources. Peek Definition

  • We added the following three options for collapsing and outlining views on file open:

    • Collapse #regions on file open
    • Collapse usings on file open
    • Collapse implementations from metadata on file open

  • You can now apply Fix All to both the Use expression body or block body and Convert to raw string literal refactoring.

  • We now have a code fix that fixes invalid constraints. Place your cursor on the diagnostic squiggle in the editor. Press Ctrl+. to trigger the Quick Actions and Refactorings menu. Select Fix constraint. Fix Constraint

  • We now have a refactoring that allows you to switch between top-level statements and the Program.Main style. Place your cursor on a top-level statement.

  • We now automatically convert single line comments to doc comments when you add an additional forward slash to a single line comment.

  • We now have a code style option that allows you to warn on possible exceptions in a foreach loop. Foreach loops implicitly casts to derived types by design. This was necessary before generics existed but can lead to runtime exceptions in some cases.

Personalization

  • Document management capabilities have been updated. Read our blog post to learn more.

These features include:

  • Tabs arranged in multiple rows.
  • Restore recent document.
  • Modified dirty indicator.

  • The Live Unit Testing window now has a status bar, similar to the Test Explorer. This should give you better insight on the operations ongoing in Live Unit Testing as well as visibly surface errors. Live Unit Testing Status Bar

  • vstest.console now supports running assemblies of different target platforms and target frameworks in one request.

  • Code Coverage now has a cache for static instrumentation for better performance.

  • Microsoft.CodeCoverage.Console is now added to the command line tools.

  • The default architecture for AnyCPU .NET Framework test projects changed from x86 to x64. This change unifies how the default architecture is determined across all types of test projects to be always based on the architecture of Visual Studio. Meaning that in x64 version of VisualStudio, x64 will be used, and in future ARM64 VisualStudio, ARM64 will be used. The same rule also applies to dotnet test, and vstest.console. To revert to using x86, navigate to Test > Processor Architecture for AnyCPU projects > x86
