Refactor Visual Studio plug-in for Visual Basic programmers.

Alex Cardona — Mon, 03 Apr 2006 23:18:00 GMT

The new refactor features of VS 2005 are nice. It wasn't until I tried using them when working on a VB.Net project that I realized....they're not there? It seems my installation of VS.Net 2005 doesn't provide the same refactor options available to C# developers out the box, at least in my installation of it.

However.. a search on MSDN brings this link to download Refactor! for VB.Net as an additional plug-in.

MS Developer Toolbar

Alex Cardona — Mon, 03 Apr 2006 23:28:00 GMT

The MS Developer toolbar is handy when working on an Asp.Net page, especially when fudging around with layout using numerous table's, div's, styles and much more. It dissects the html displayed on the browser and presents a nice display of the elements of the page, their attributes and then some. It saves from having to view the html source as much as I did. ..

Debugging Javascript in VS.Net

Alex Cardona — Fri, 07 Apr 2006 08:50:00 GMT

I could have used this long time ago but better late than never. It turns out that you can debug javascript after all in VS.Net...very cool.

“Just write the magic "debugger;" line in your javascript code and VS.NET will popup in debug mode (make sure you have unchecked the "Disable script debugging" options in IE -> Tools -> Options -> Advanced). From this point on you can take advantage of step over (F10), step into (F11) and the powerful Watch window displaying all the properties/method of the object you inspect.“
