Back at Tech Ed in 2008, Microsoft announced that:
IBM and Microsoft have agreed to work together to integrate IBM DB2 database access with Visual Studio Team System Database Edition.
— Microsoft Press Release – 6/3/2008
Has anyone seen evidence that this has actually happened? More importantly, has anyone had success moving DB2 projects to VS 2010?
We have some DB2 database projects that rely on the IBM Database Add-ins for Visual Studio 2008. I have been unable to find any mention of 2010 Add-Ins on IBM’s site and they only support the add-ins through forums. I asked about VS 2010 support on the forums and got no response.
It looks like the beta for VS 2010/.net 4.0 support is finally out. I’ll follow up after we’ve done some testing.
