Visual Assist X from Whole Tomato Software

  • [アーティクル]

People send me mail that asks "What about Visual Assist X?".  This blog gets comments like "Tool X is nothing compared to the Whole Tomato stuff".  In chats I've seen "Why don't you guys just buy the Whole Tomato stuff and ship it in the box?".  I'll admit, they do some great work through our extensibility interfaces and giving them props in this blog was long overdue.  So, if you haven't already, you should check out the free trial of Visual Assist X from Whole Tomato Software. 

Some of this stuff (better code coloring, code templates, etc) you'll see in Whidbey, but there is a bunch of other stuff in there as well that we just aren't doing like the "hovering class browser", spell checking, automatic case correction, etc. Good times! Josh

    Great tool. My entire dev team has it. I'd like to point out that the default behavior is bound to annoy you -- take some time to go through the options and turn off stuff you don't want or like. (For me reformatting my source code is a deadly sin.)

    Another great tool is ReSharper from JetBrains. It sounds similar but includes some really crafty refactoring abilities too.

    I have tried ReSharper and Visual Assist X.

    The problem I have with ReSharper is that it is a bit slow... espesially it's Intellesense. It does have nice IS, but I just can't wait that long.

    Visual Assist works to augment the existing intellisense rather than replace it. It basically does everything ReSharper does except for the Refactoring and the "Find Usage" stuff.

    Actually, I might consider using both of them and turn of all the resharper intellisense and code completion stuff and use VSX for that... Just using ReSharper for the Find Usages and Refactoring.

    This real nice thing is that VS 2005 seems to include everything these tools have. (Except the types on intellesense).

    Perhaps the VS team will grab it and add those few things the build in intellisense doesn't have to VS. Not to make ReSharper useless... they still have the whole 2003 market.

    This is the one tool I've spent money on myself so I can take it wherever I might end up working.
