如何为Visual C＃Express 2010安装Dev Express？

Question

I have Visual C# Express 2010 installed on my machine to develop windows application. I read about and have used dev express with visual studio 2010. So I wanted to install dev exprss on my machine and use its tools in Visual C# Express 2010. I have installed dev express but the controls are not showing in the toolbox. I tried adding them in the toolbox options but the dev express tools are not present there. Is dev express not supported to be used with Visual C# Express 2010?

Answer 1

You can't - this isn't a Dev Express limitation per se, but a limitation of the Express SKUs of Visual Studio: they don't allow plugins to be installed. So the same is true for ReSharper, NCrunch etc.

It's one of the differentiation points between the Express range and the commercial editions of Visual Studio.
