SpecExplorer installed failure!

Question

I installed SpecExplorer.msi from here: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/271d0904-f178-4ce9-956b-d9bfa4902745/

The installation claims to be successful. And I can see SpecExplorer menu in VS2010. But I cannot run ssc.exe. And I cannot open any *.sscproj project.

What else do I need?

Hi Sam,

maybe everything is fine.
*.sscproj/ssc.exe is not from SpecExplorer (it was *.seproj in the past)

Did you try already the examples mentioned here?

Thanks for your reply.

So where are *.sscproj/ssc.exe from? What is *.seproj? Are they part of SpecExplorer?

Hi Sam,

Did you use Spec# before? The *.sscproj file extension seems to come from Spec#, which is an independent product from Spec Explorer 2010. Spec Explorer only works with normal C# projects (*.csproj file).
