VS2019 support?

[ChrisRedacted]

Hi! I've been loving this fastbuild monitor and have been using it for quite some time. It looks like it hasn't been updated yet for VS2019. I was hoping that it wouldn't be much work, but judging by the amount of changes required to get it working for VS2017, I'm guessing it's not as easy as adjusting a few numbers? Is there any plan for doing that upgrade any time soon?

I've got it working locally, it was just a matter of manually adding some references back in, and changing the manifest to support VS 2019 and rebuilding.

Awesome! That makes my day!

Can I ask how this went?

Filled with hope, I spent a couple hours to see if I could easily figure out how to upgrade this myself for VS2019, but building Visual Studio extensions is not my forte. I got it building, but I didn't get it working on VS2019. Then I got distracted by other things, so I have not done this. My secret hope is that if I wait long enough, someone else with more time and/or experience will do it, and publish it on github somewhere.

I've uploaded the fixed project and the vsix file here for you guys. Please let me know if that doesn't work or you can't access this.

I am kind of a Github noob (by choice), I'm more of a Perforce guy, so I don't know how all the pull requests etc and uploading binaries works and didn't want to spend time reading 15 pages of github docs to do that. :)

Honestly, I'm in the exact same boat. Perforce is much more familiar for me. But this is perfect! I'm now up and running with the monitor on VS2019! Thanks so much!

Since @pravinbabar 's link had expired. I have uploaded another vsix for VS2019.
Anyone who need it please feel free to take it.
