IEEE bibliography style for BibLaTeX (not BibTeX)? [closed]

Question

Does anyone have or know where to find o bibliography style file like IEEEtr or IEEEtran for BibLaTeX? I've been searching all over, but could only find the ones for BibTeX. BibTeX can't really do the things I want, but my thesis has to conform with the IEEE standards...

I'd be really thankful if anyone could give me a hint how to use IEEE styles with BibLaTeX

Thanks a lot, Simon

What is bibtex not able to do that you want and biblatex able to do? – Andante

@Andante - for example, biblatex allows you to include your .bib file contents inline in the latex file.. But indeed, its manual, while stating that it interfaces with bibtex - it makes no mention of whether bibtex styles can be used, it just says:"\bibliographystyle is omitted entirely (all features are controlled by package options)". – Kristeenkristel

This question was posted over on tex.stackexchange.com recently, and a biblatex-ieee style is in the works: tex.stackexchange.com/questions/10727/… – Iberia

I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it's more relevant to tex.stackexchange.com – Gingery

Answer 3

Well, I'm interested in the same thing - and I guess the answer is, biblatex can NOT use the style files that bibtex, like ieeetr.bst. The reason I think that is:

 

Re: Biblatex: "patent" record type

I'm currently working on porting a BibTeX style for my subject area (chemistry) to biblatex.

 

CTAN: directory: /tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/biblatex-contrib

biblatex-apa/
biblatex-chem/
biblatex-chicago/

... that is - apparently you have to build your own biblatex style, if you want to to be the same as a bibtex style.
