vsix

I want to develop an extension for VS2010 that will allow me make some additional features to syntax-highlighting. I installed the SDK, how do I start from? Please give a little snippet (or a link to code) where I can see how to start. Note : do I have to check the whole block of code, or the SDK tells me on each word what it is, how it's declared etc.? There's a decent bit of information out there for writing classifiers. I wrote a blog article about it awhile back. As for samples/code, there's: A project template that ships with the SDK (look under C#->Extensibility) (Brian's answer mentions

I'm not able to add context menu entries for website project items. How to reproduce the problem: Create a VS Package project Go to the vsct file and replace the groups section with: <Group guid="guidVSPackage1CmdSet" id="MyMenuGroup" priority="0x0600"> <Parent guid="guidSHLMainMenu" id="IDM_VS_MENU_TOOLS"/> </Group> <Group guid="guidVSPackage1CmdSet" id="MyMenuGroup" priority="0x0600"> <Parent guid="guidSHLMainMenu" id="IDM_VS_CTXT_PROJNODE"/> </Group> <Group guid="guidVSPackage1CmdSet" id="MyMenuGroup" priority="0x0600"> <Parent guid="guidSHLMainMenu" id="IDM_VS_CTXT_ITEMNODE"/> </Group>

I have created a windows mobile application in Visual Studio. I want to templatize this project so that one can open this as a template as opposed to a project. Is this possible in Visual Studio? I read that there is something called as "VSX (Visual Studio Extension)" which may achieve this. I have Visual Studio Ultimate installed in my system and was trying to install the VS2010 SDK. But its not getting installed telling that i dont have MS Visual Studio 2010 which I apparently do. Am I going in the right direction? If not what would be the correct way to go ? Yes it is possible like this:

I'm creating a custom test runner for my project. So I've created a test vsix project which can be registered in Visual Studio. I also knows that I load the extension through F5, then the experimental instance of Visual Studio is loaded, but breakpoints are not hit in the Visual Studio Instance in which I've created my vsix. Someone knows how to really debug it? I've built a few Visual Studio extension and I've never found a good way to debug a VSIX. You can launch an experimental instance, but I've found this to be the slowest possibility. This is the workflow I use: Open a Visual Studio

After installing the latest Visual Studio 2015 Update 2, the EF power tools reverse code engineer option fails with the following error message. One or more errors occurred while processing template 'Entity.tt'. error : An exception was thrown while trying to compile the transformation code. The following Exception was thrown: System.ArgumentException: Empty path name is not legal. at System.IO.FileStream.Init(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, Int32 rights, Boolean useRights, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES secAttrs, String msgPath,

My Visual Studio package requires the use of an EnvDTE.DTE variable, but it always gets back as null. After reading up on many hacks, all of them say to use the OnShellPropertyChange() method (IVsShellPropertyEvents), but sometimes it just never fires - as if my extension never finishes loading. I'm using VS2010 and checking against both VSSPROPID_Zombie and ShellInitialized - no work. :( Any ideas? This is the code I'm using: public int OnShellPropertyChange(int propid, object var) { if (propid == -9053 || (int) __VSSPROPID.VSSPROPID_Zombie == propid) { // -9053 = ShellInit try { if ((bool)

Both of these articles talk about how to develop extensions for VS2013, but both presume that you have an extension project type available Extending the Visual Studio Environment Creating Extensions By Using the VSIX Project Template As of 11/9/13, there are already 544 extensions for VS2013 in the gallery, so I'm guessing it's possible, but I can't find the template anywhere. Found It! You need to download the Visual Studio 2013 SDK Once installed, the project template will appear here: First install the Visual Studio 2013 SDK. It can me easily found on MS. 来源： https://stackoverflow.com
