How to register the F# project with VS 2008 Beta 2

In this post I mentioned that F# compiler doesn't register its project correctly with VS 2008 Beta 2.

Repo:  Clean installation of Vista, with no previous .NET 3.5 or VS 2008 Beta bits installed.  Subsequent installation of the F# compiler installs but VS F# project is not registered with VS.

Here is what you need to do:

  1. Edit the alternative-install-vs2005 bat file to target the new location of VS 2008 right at the end of the file.
  2. Run alternative-install-vs2005 as admin elevated privs.

That should be all you need to do.

I actually fixed this a while ago now but thanks to Tomas Petricek for his help nonetheless.
