VisualStudio.Extensibility: Editor classification and updates to user prompt - Visual Studio Blog

devblogs.microsoft.com VisualStudio.Extensibility: Editor classification and updates to user prompt - Visual Studio Blog

Discover what’s new in VisualStudio.Extensibility SDK 17.14, including text classification, enhanced ShowPromptAsync API, and .NET runtime updates for faster, more reliable Visual Studio extensions.

Our 17.14 release of VisualStudio.Extensibility includes the following features:

Text classification support

Updates to the ShowPromptAsync API

This release also includes a previously mentioned change regarding .NET runtime management requirements. VisualStudio.Extensibility extensions are executed on a separate .NET runtime host, unlike VSSDK extensions which run in the same process as devenv.exe, using the .NET Framework runtime. Since VisualStudio.Extensibility extensions operate on .NET, we must adhere to the runtime servicing lifetime of .NET. Consequently, the VisualStudio.Extensibility platform will be regularly updated to advance to newer versions of .NET LTS. For more information on how this affects you as an extension developer or consumer, please refer to our documentation here.

Note: VS 17.14 was released 14 days ago. This VS blog post highlights and elaborates on this topic.
