The ORM Foundation

 Hi

I have installed Visual Studio Community 2015 on my PC,
and I have downloaded NORMA for Visual Studio 2015.

When trying to install NORMA, I am presented with this dialogue box:

Un sourceforge.net I can find only PLiX for VS 2008 only, and that refuses to install on VS Community 2015.

So I'm stuck.

As the frontpage of ormfoundation.org states that, "1 October 2015: New release of NORMA
New version for Visual Studio 2015 is now available for download. This version has been tested on Windows 10. 
More good news: NORMA runs in the FREE Editions of Visual Studio 2013 & 2015  " 

- I guess, that I must be doing something wrong - and as have had absolutely no experience with VS ever, that I quite likely.

Any advise on this matter will be msot appreciated.

Best regards
Kim 

Hello,

Did you run 'PLiX for Visual Studio.msi' that comes with the NORMA for VS2015 download?

 Hello Jacob

Ken gave some hints, and eventually I succeeded to install and run.

Thanks.

Best regards

Hello Kim,

I am facing some issues to install the NORMA plugin under VS 2015.

Do you have a pointer/reference about the suggestion you received from Ken?

In my case, after the installation, the list of plugins appear to be corrupted: when I attempt to create a new file, the VS interface does not show any plugin template and I cannot create any.

Any suggestion is much appreciated.

Thank you in advance,

Daniele 

 Hi Daniele,

Please give more details on your problem.

Which operating system are you using? 

Did NORMA install without errors?

PLiX should have been installed as part of the NORMA installation.
You can check this by looking at the Programs list - PLiX is after NORMA in the list.

Where are you seeing a "list of plugins"?
Why are you looking at this list?

If NORMA installed correctly then the procedure for starting a new object-role model instance is as follows:
1: Start Visual Studio

2: File>New>File - then choose "Object-Role Modeling File" from the list.
