Format source code on save in Visual Studio 2005

Question

I would like Visual Studio to format my source code every time I save. I can do this in Eclipse. Can it be done in Visual Studio 2005?

Answer 1

It is possible with the Powercommands plugin for VS.NET, but, I fear that this plugin is only available for VS.NET 2008.

Answer 2

You can do it with a macro.

Here is the code for the macro, which can be mapped to a button in a toolbar and/or a keyboard shortcut

Public Module SaveAndFormat
    Sub SaveAndFormat()
        DTE.ExecuteCommand("Edit.FormatDocument")
        DTE.ActiveDocument.Save()
    End Sub
End Module
