Visual Studio Community 2015 with Crystal Reports 14

Question

I have upgraded my VS to new version VS community 15 which requires CR 14 to work with it. I installed but it is not showing its components in toolbox. Does VS 15 give proper compatibility with CR 14? If So what are the steps to make it work?

Solution 1

Install the Crystal report service Pack 15 and check the list of fixed issues: Incident 508399

It works for me with Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition (with .NET 4.6)

Solution 2

Visual Studio 2015 is not compatible with crystal reports yet.

Compatibility is planned for the next service pack which is due out sometime in September.
