Ice Builder for Visual Studio is a Visual Studio extension that configures Ice Builder for MSBuild for your C++ and C# projects, all within the Visual Studio IDE. It serves as a front-end for Ice Builder for MSBuild: all the build-time processing is performed by Ice Builder for MSBuild.

Ice Builder for Visual Studio is compatible with Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019, and works best with the following Ice installations:

  • Ice NuGet package for Ice 3.7 or greater
  • Ice Web installation or MSI installation for Ice 3.6

Please refer to Ice Builder's README.md on GitHub for full usage instructions.

For Visual Studio 2022 use Ice Builder For Visual Studio 2022 instead.
