how to maintain bookmark in visual studio project for developer and team separately ?

Question

where is the the bookmark detials stored in visual studion project ? project file : *.csproj solution file: *.sln

I am wondering if its possible to maintain bookmarks seprately for team and per/developer. By default.

When I checkin the project in source control ( perforce ) I do not want all my bookmarks to sync in for other developers but only a few which are useful to the whole team.

Update #1: we need some refrence point in the code - that can be used as shothand in email and commuincaiton between developers/support teams. For that we need to maintain bookmark at team level.

Update #2: It seems everyone suggested not to share bookmarks at team level ( its a hidden file for a reason etc...). I am wondering if there is any other tool in visual studio to meet the purpose here. the best about bookmarks is its ability to hyperlink to any portion of a code which is extremely useful if the code base is HUGE!

Answer 1

Bookmarks are stored in your solution's .SUO file.

However it is not a good idea to put this file into source control. That's why it's a hidden file.

In my opinion, bookmarks are user-specific and should not be shared between team members.

Answer 2

Well shared bookmarks are extremely useful for code review at least.

Answer 3

It's suggested that you NOT use Bookmarks for team activities but instead use comment tokens (aka "TODO's", etc..) as they travel with the source code.
