Is there an addon that helps aligning the named argument when calling a C# method?

Hi everyone, It would be nice if we would have the feature 'align named parameters' for method calls? Eg. I have a method: void myMethod(int arg1, int argWithLongerName) { //do something } and I call: myMethod( arg1:1, argWithLongerName:2); I want it to be formatted automatically as below: myMethod( arg1: ...

Visual Studio Data Generation and Many-to-Many

The data generation tool that comes with Visual Studio allows you to populate tables with random/patterned data. As an example, you can tell it to populate an Employees table with 50,000 rows and you can tell it to add 5 address rows to an Addresses table for each Employee row. I've got a junction table much like the permissions exampl...

Free/Inexpensive Visual Studio 2010 Intellisense Extensions That Search Namespaces for Methods?

Is anyone aware of a free or < $25 VS2010 extension that suggests namespaces based on partial information?

VS2010 Target Silverlight Version 2.0?

I've just upgraded to VS2010 as I was running into problems with a Silverlight project that I needed to be built in 2.0 but I also needed other projects built in 3.0. I read about VS2010's ability to specify the Silverlight Target version and figured it was time to upgrade to solve my problem. I've installed 2010 and have also installe...

C++ header issue

So I essentially have the following code. I had working code and wanted to separate some of it into two different classes, D3DWindow and D3DController, rather than having it all in D3DWindow.

Updates to Controllers or Models are not accounted for when recompiling ASP.NET MVC application

When I rebuild the project/solution and test it (localhost) the changes to the code are not compiled, these changes are not applied. However, changes to the Views t...

Setting keypath when automatically harvesting a project using Votive

I'm using the project reference feature of WiX to harvest a project automatically using Heat. This is particularly useful since the WiX installer is being built both locally and on a TFS2010 build server, and when it's built on the build server the output is redirected to a different location meaning that if I don't automatically harvest...

Getting ReSharper to replace multiple instances of a highlighted expression during Extract Method

Can anybody please tell me how to get ReSharper to replace multiple instances (instead of just one) of a highlighted expression when using Extract Method ?
