Develop for Windows Phone 7 (or 7.1) using Visual Studio 2012 (RTM,Premium)

Question

Is it possible to get the WindowsPhone 7.1.1 sdk to work with Visual Studio 2012?

Edit: As stated in the title of my question: I wanted to know whether its possible to develop windows phone 7.1.1 apps using Visual Studio 2012.

I already tried installing the SDK and the hotfix but I still can't open Windows Phone 7.1 projects with VS2012. Hence, my question: Am I missing something obvious or is it simply not possbile?

Answer 1

There we go :) --> Windows Phone SDK 8.0

Answer 2

I have both Visual studio 2012 RTM (for Windows 8 store application development) and Windows phone 7.1.1 SDK in my Windows 8 Release Preview and they are working fine.

And like you, I am also waiting for the Windows Phone 8 SDK.(btw, there is no windows phone 7.8 sdk)

UPDATE: This Windows Phone 8.0 SDK link states that "you can install Windows Phone SDK 7.1 (and the WPSDK 7.1.1 Update) and continue to build apps and games that target Windows Phone 7.5. The existing Windows Phone SDK installs side by side with Visual Studio 2012, and you can feel confident that the code you write today will work on Windows Phone 8 devices."
