Having Visual Studio 2010 SP1, where everything is fine, I can create Silverlight Unit Test Project, RIA Services Class Library, etc
I installed Visual Studio 2012, then I'm creating a RIA Services Class Library when I noticed that don't exist 'Domain Service Class', neither Silverlight Unit Test.
What I need to develop RIA Services with Visual Studio 2012?
The Tools for Silverlight 5 get installed with Visual Studio 2012. May be you need to reinstalled the Tools for Silverlight 4 again.
You can check if your installation of Visual Studio 2012 supports Silverlight 4 by creating a new Silverlight Application project. In the dialog that pops up you can select (ComboBox) the Silverlight Version you want to use in your project.

I have a project made with Silverlight 5 and RIA Services. It works ok on Visual Studio Professional (2010/2012/2013) and the RIA client code generation is running perfect.
I am trying to use Visual Studio 2013 Express (for Web) to build my project, but the RIA client code generation doest't work and doesn't shows any error message to show me what happened... I checked if the my in the csproj would have a problem, but it is configured properly.
Somebody knows if there is some workaround get this working?
Or, if the Express Visual Studio versions' are incompatible with this feature?
Tks
I would use the Visual Studio Community Edition. It is more like the Professional Edition and allows for different project types in the same solution. It may fix your issue.
Visual Studio Community
This is what I have:
And my book! says pick Business Application as the type. But I don't see it.
What things should I install?
Thanks.
if you are using visual studio 2013 this template type has been removed.
From Msdn:
WCF Rich Internet Application Services item templates and project templates (for example, Silverlight Business Application template) are removed for Visual Studio 2013. If you open an existing Visual Studio 2010 SP1 or Visual Studio 2012 project containing WCF Rich Internet Application services items, you can build, and maintain the project using Visual Studio 2013. New WCF Rich Internet Application Services projects and additive changes are discouraged because the project and item templates have been removed.

Hello I've been switching between blend and visual studio for designing and coding and I heard that you can right click an XML file and click open in blend I've looked on the context menu and it isn't there. Any help is appreciated.
The Blend in Visual Studio 2012 is for Windows Phone and Windows Store apps only,
http://www.microsoft.com/expression/eng/
Blend will continue to ship as a standalone tool with Visual Studio
2012, as part of a consolidated designer/developer offering. Blend for
Visual Studio 2012 provides a rich design-centric environment for
building Windows Store apps and Windows Phone apps. In addition,
Visual Studio 2012 Update 2 and later adds support for Silverlight and
WPF editing, as well as SketchFlow.
You will have to install Update 2 as suggested by Microsoft.
I have installed Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate, I customized my installation(I stripped-down C++,J# because I didn't need it)..After the installation the SilverLight did not appear in the installed templates. Do I have to install SilverLight tools separately? Doesn't the VS 2010 Ultimate come bundled with silverlight tools?
I think you missed some option during customize installation, its come with Visual Studio 2010.
You can install separately silverlight tools also.
Probably you've missed something, I don't remember excluding silverlight toolkit during the installation. But my customized installation was successful.
Did you installed service pack 1 update for visual studio? If you didn't I would recommend you to check for Windows Updates.
In any case you can download the tools you need or for silverlight a clean install from here (silverlight get started) but the tools you need are the Silverlight 5 RC Tools for Visual Studio 2010 SP1
How to work with silverlight 3.0 with visual studio 2008?
Which version or service packs of visual studio should be installed to work with silverlight?
I installed silverlight toolkit july 2009 release but controls are not visible in visual studio 2008 RTM i.e. installed in my PC?
Scott Guthrie has a good rundown of what you need here: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2009/07/10/silverlight-3-released.aspx
In short, the only thing you really need is the Microsoft Silverlight 3 Tools for Visual Studio 2008 but you might also get benefit from the Silverlight Toolkit which contains a bunch of additional controls. In terms of Visualo Studio, make sure you have SP1 installed first.
