Eclipse editor rightside-bar in visual studio

Question

Hi! When programming in Eclipse I use small vertical bar on the right side of the editor. When I get errors, they are displayed as red boxes there so I can see if file contains errors and quickly jump to that place. Also warnings and other stuff is displayed there.

Question: is there something similar for Visual Studio (2008)? It sounds strange that nobody created such useful addon for VS, but I haven't found anything in google regarding my question..

Answer 1

Hi,

I don't know anything in plain VS but with CodeRush from DevExpress or Resharper from Jetbrains this feature is delivered as part of those plusings.

Edit: They do not only show errors but code issues too, meaning code analysis with rules in a way similar to FX Cop.
