Excellent plug-in however at the moment it's got a problem with detecting changes to the solution, which means that i have to close the solution and then re-open it. It defeats the purpose of having the reload all projects setting (which is awesome).

Thank you very much Jarek. Questions regarding styleCop warning auto Fixing. following is posted about 1 year ago; is it still the case or there are more number of styleCop can be fixed by the great tool - VSCommands :) thank you again.

SA1001: The spacing around a C# keyword is incorrect.
SA1025: The code contains multiple whitespace characters in a row.
SA1027: The C# code contains a tab character.
SA1507: The C# code contains multiple blank lines in a row.
SA1515: A single-line comment within C# code is not preceded by a blank line.
SA1516: Adjacent C# elements are not separated by a blank line.

Enjoy using this plugin. It is a bit kitchen sinky and mucks with color settings that do not work well with Resharper at times. The biggest benefit is the support for one click project reload when doing git branch changes.

I've been using this extension for over a year now. Upgraded to Pro version recently and I wish I had done it earlier, it saves so much time!
Can't wait for all the features to be available in Visual Studio 2012 version.

Great tool

Our team is using it for cross platform development by code sharing mostly with links (Copy paste as link)...

Few ideas (web site is not working):
1. Folders copy + paste as link
2. Dependency def for files for grouping like Windows Forms or Xaml
<DependentUpon>Form1.cs</DependentUpon>

thanks

regards

Hi Jarek

Few more!!!! (We are currently porting few Windows CE apps to MonoTouch
and Mono for Android, so this is from our experience:
3. partialize - exsisting class split into 2 files, old and new one + add
partial keyword in both files
4. add partial code - for existing partial class just add empty partial
def
Class.cs -> Class.partial.cs
5. Override copy/paste behaviour of VS
not: Class.cs -> Copy of Class.cs
but: Class.cs -> Class copy 01.cs (otherwise it reorders classes and
dev needs to navigate in Solution explorer to renamed file)
6. Copy as link is maybe too much (not sure)
Copy + Paste or Paste-as-Link

--------------------
Hi again!

I'm glad I could suggest. When could we expect some of those changes?

thanks

The speed of this addin is terrible. Uninstalled for good.

Hi John,
If any feature is having performance issues then you can easily disable if from Tools | VSCommands | Options. All features can be disabled in this way. It would also be great if you could provide bit more details about speed problems (which action/feature is slowing you down) so I can try to fix it. Just email jarek@squaredinfinity.com.

Thank you in advance,
Jarek

Thanks!

Es muy util, me gusta mucho la facilidad que me brinda para programar.

by James Schubert | July 15 2012

This is one of my favorite extensions. A lot of people complain about it being a trial. It is a free (light) version for which a license can unlock additional features. I used it for quite some time for free until I started my most recent position and decided to upgrade to the premium version to unlock a few of the extra features. It's well worth it, if you ask me.

A note to reviewers giving it a bad review because it's a 'trial': you're all developers, show a little respect. If you don't know the difference between free software and freemium software, you're probably in the wrong field. If you're going to rate it low, rate it because of the actual product and not because you want something for nothing.

Version: 10.3.9.12
Performance when coding in .cshtml is very bad.

Thank you for letting me know, could you email me the cshtml file whre performance is poor to jarek@squaredinfinity.com ? Thank you in advance!

by Muggsly | July 12 2012

Please do not call it free if it is a Trail version.... I would hope that some of these features are incorporated into the Visual Studio 2012...

Hi there!
VSCommands Lite is free and all features included in it are free.VSCommands Pro is a paid version which includes additional features, you don't have to pay anything to use VSCommands Lite version.

by Eyal Shilony1 | June 27 2012

It's excellent although unfortunately relatively slow, 5 stars regardless.

I've disabled the syntax highlighting and it's all good.

Keep up the good work!

by RyanSL | June 26 2012

Well, how delightful. Another "free" extension that isn't free. You download it for free, run it for free, give it a great review for free...and then one day, surprise! ...it isn't really free.

I wish Microsoft would crack down on this kind of crap. This is TRIAL software, not FREE software.

Hey, I don't have a problem with people charging money for their software. I'm a programmer too. I *do* have a problem with people being dishonest about it. Get rid of that "Free" button up there and be honest about what you're offering.

Hi RyanSL,
This is a freemium extension meaning that more than half of the features are available for free and you can see exactly which one here http://vscommands.com/feature-comparison/

This is also mentioned in the description of the extension.

by achristov.at.hotmail.com | June 07 2012

Slow, esp. settings. No real reason to keep it.

Hi there,
Thank you for letting me know about the slow settings. Several users reported this problem before and it seems to be caused by Visual Studio components not being installed properly. Please see this support topic for details on how to solve this: https://getsatisfaction.com/dpstudio/topics/vscommands_not_saving_settings

  • Detecting Solution Modicifications
    1 Posts | Last Post April 08, 2013
    • If the solution file is changed, the current VSCommands is not detecting that. So if the solution changes you need to close and reopen it.
      
      Are you able to fix that?
  • Open command prompt missing
    1 Posts | Last Post February 18, 2013
    • Hi,
      I am missing command 'Open command prompt' feature in Solution explorer in VS2012. It is present in VSCommands in VS 2010.
  • File Structure & C++
    3 Posts | Last Post January 30, 2013
    • Is it intentional that every time I navigate to a different file the File Structure window says Not Supported until I press refresh? This is in VS2012 with .cpp files and .h files?
    • Oops, also in wrong place. meant for 2012
    • Err, have to bite my tounge again. It's actually in VS2010 not 2012.
  • closing brace code segment text color?
    1 Posts | Last Post January 30, 2013
    • What is the name of the setting Tools -> Options -> Environment ->Fonts and Colors that I need to change so that I can see the closing brace text? I use a dark color theme and it's nearly invisible.

  • "More Information" link in VS Extension Manager
    1 Posts | Last Post December 14, 2012
    • The "More Information" link that this extension v10.3.9.12 displays in VS2010's Extension Manager is this URL, http://www.vscommands.com/features which now gives a 404 error. Please put in place a redirect on your web host, or update the extension to direct to a valid URL, eg the extension homepage, http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/d491911d-97f3-4cf6-87b0-6a2882120acf. Thanks
  • File Structure Fails with Nullable Types
    1 Posts | Last Post December 10, 2012
    • This prevents file structure from displaying:
      
      Public Class Class2
          Friend Shared Sub GetMe(sysId As DateTime?, handler As [Delegate])
      
          End Sub
      End Class
      
      Nullable(of Datetime) seems to work, but the question mark breaks it.
  • CodeContracts
    2 Posts | Last Post September 27, 2012
    • Can you please bring back the option that create the abstract classes? it was extremely useful for me and I've used it on regular basis.
    • Oops! I've written it in the wrong place, should have written this in VSCommands 2012.
  • Can't download
    2 Posts | Last Post September 11, 2012
    • why i can't download it?
    • Not sure, it just tried on several machines and it worked..
      You can try direct link: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/d491911d-97f3-4cf6-87b0-6a2882120acf/file/25426/72/DPStudio.VSCommands.vsix

  • Links in Description are broken (404)
    4 Posts | Last Post August 07, 2012
    • The links in the tool description are not working.  I don't find the free/pro comparision table.
    • I've unchecked the "Enable custom comments formatting" option yet it still persists.
    • Hi DannyR_,
      
      Sorry for that 404, must have missed it when migrating website to a new server.
      I'll bring feature comparison site back i next couple of days, for you can have a look at archived version http://web.archive.org/web/20100904165511/http://vscommands.com/feature-comparison/
    • Hy Jarek,
      thank you.
      
      Cheers,

  • Cannot upgrade to 10.3.9.12 version or cannot uninstall 10.3.9.8
    3 Posts | Last Post August 06, 2012
    • I am trying to upgrade to 10.3.9.12 version from 10.3.9.8 for VS2010 and getting the following error:
      Uninstalling 'VSCommands for Visual Studio 2010', version 10.3.9.8.
      System.IO.IOException: Cannot create a file when that file already exists.
      
      I get the same error "Cannot create a file when that file already exists." when I try to just uninstall the VSCommands extension from Extension Manager.
      
      I have tried removing following folder but no help:
      "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions\Squared Infinity\VSCommands for Visual Studio 2010"
      and "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\Extensions\Squared Infinity\VSCommands 10"
      
      Any help would be appreciated !!
    • Can you try this:
      - close all instances of Visual Studio
      - ensure that the folders you mentioned are deleted (they might have been recreated by VS)
      - run visual studio as administrator
      - uninstall previous version
      
      Hope it will help!
      
    • Hi Jarek, 
      Yes it did work and I could install 10.3.9.12 version. Thanks for your help !!
