Visual Studio 2015 solutions backwards compatibility with Visual Studio 2013 -
it seems can open vs 2013 solution file in vs 2015. i've few questions regarding backwards compatibility:
- can vs 2013 solution maintained in vs 2015 safely without losing capability work on in vs 2013?
- can vs 2015 solution maintained in vs 2013?
i can try out myself, know if there documented caveats should aware of.
i found official docs on files supported when upgrading solutions in visual studio in msdn article porting, migrating, , upgrading visual studio projects.
the key takeaway here in opening paragraph.
if use visual studio 2015 visual studio 2013,visual studio 2012 or visual studio 2010 sp1, can create , modify projects , files in of versions. can transfer projects , files among versions long don't add features not supported 1 of versions.
you can run same solution in different versions of visual studio long don't implement feature in higher version not supported in lower version.
this applies not vs 2015-2013 compatibility, vs 2012 , vs 2010 sp 1 well.
as side note, came across while trying open report projects in vs 2015. article gives breakdown of compatibility between specific kinds of files between vs versions.
