Visual Studio 2005 does work under wine if you build C++ applications
that do not use CLR. I am not sure about .NET at all because I have
not tested that. My Qt applications do build without issue from the
Visual Studio that is installed using winetricks. It may be possible
to build .NET applications if you had installed .NET via winetricks
first in a clean prefix. I do not believe installing .NET directly
using the microsoft installers works. Please correct me if I am
wrong..
