VS 2013 SDK Samples released
It took a bit longer than we’d have liked, but the VS team has finally gotten around to porting and posting the original VS SDK samples from VS 2010, over to VS 2013. Below is a listing of the samples and where they can be downloaded from.
A Visual Studio Package which provides a new tool window called "Build Progress" which displays a WPF ProgressBar indicating percentage completion of the current solution build.
This is a sample extension for Visual Studio 2013 that visually scales lines to be smaller the farther away from the caret's current position they are. It accomplishes this using the line transformation API.
This sample allows the user to specify a set of terms to search for by specifying a set of XML files containing the term definitions. The user-configurable settings are stored in the project file. The scan can be invoked either on command or as an integrated part of the build process. When the scan is performed, a custom task provider causes hits, if any, to be shown in the task list.
