Installing the AppScan Source for Development plug-in for Visual Studio

About this task

Important: You must have Visual Studio 2012, Visual Studio 2013, Visual Studio, 2015, Visual Studio 2017, or Visual Studio 2019 installed on your computer before installing the AppScan® Source for Development plug-in for Visual Studio. The AppScan Source for Development plug-in for Visual Studio is only supported on Windows™.

If the AppScan Source setup wizard finds an installed version of one of these versions of Visual Studio, the AppScan Source for Development plug-in for that Visual Studio version appears as an installation option.

Procedure

  1. Ensure that Visual Studio is closed. If Visual Studio is running during the AppScan Source for Development installation, it will need to be restarted when the installation is complete.
  2. Start the installation wizard.
  3. Select the appropriate version of the plug-in from the list of client components:
    Note:
    • Options are only available for the version or versions of Visual Studio that have been installed on the machine that is running the installation wizard.
    • You can choose to install the plug-in for multiple versions of Visual Studio, if they have been detected by the installation wizard.

    Click Next advance to the next installation panel.

  4. In the language pack selection panel, choose the language packs to install. When you install a language pack, the AppScan Source user interface will display in that language when it runs on an operating system that is running that locale.

    By default, English is selected (and cannot be deselected). If the installation wizard is displaying a national language other than English (in other words, a language other than English was selected in the installation wizard welcome panel), that language will also be selected in this panel (however, it can be deselected).

    After you have selected the language packs that you want to install, click Next to advance to the next installation panel.

    Note: If you do not install a specific language pack, you will not be able to add that language post-installation.
  5. Review and accept the terms of the license agreement and then click Next to continue.
  6. Review the summary of installation options before copying files. Click Install. The installer copies files to the hard disk drive.
