With Visual Studio 2017 the way extensions are handled has changed. It is no longer possible to have a single extension supporting all versions of Visual Studio, including 2010,2012,2013,2015 and 2017. Therefore, we decided to drop VS2010 support with the next major version. Until this is released, the extension must be installed into VS2017 by an additional manual installation step.
After installing the ILNumerics download package go into the installation folder. Commonly this is found under: C:\Program Files (x86)\ILNumerics\ILNumerics Ultimate VS\bin
. In the bin
folder double click the ILNumerics.VSExtension.vsix
file. This starts the VS extension installer. Just follow the instructions to install ILNumerics into VS2017. There will be a security related warning along the way which you can ignore.
