We are setting up a CI server to build our Visual Studio extension (or rather re-setting up). My question is two part:
We are currently supporting VS 2010 and higher
1) is it still the case that you really need VS installed on the CI server to build? you can't easily build a VS extension using just msbuild + the vs sdk (last time I checked the vs sdk wouldn't even install without vs installed)
2) to support vs2010 and higher do I need to isntall all the vs versions or can I jus tinstall vs 2015 + sdk and avoid using any apis that are not available in vs 2010 +
