October 27, 2009
With Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 released last week, we want to get our next Beta of VA X out as soon as we can. We are currently working through some breaking changes introduced in Beta 2, but we hope to resolve these quickly and get a build out in the next week or…
Enhanced suggestions
October 6, 2009
In our latest builds of Visual Assist X, we’ve been sneaking in some enhancements from our work on the upcoming Visual Studio 2010 beta. We decided to roll these features out early so our users could start enjoying them in currently supported IDEs with out having to wait for the full VS2010 beta. Hope you enjoy!
Enhanced suggestions are one of the items we’ve added.

VS2010: VA X and C++/CLI
Microsoft seems to have challenged themselves to see how much they can change for VS2010 — new WPF shell, snazzy text editor, MEF-based extensibility, VSIX installers, C++ build system, oh my. This is a major release both on the surface and…
Add Include
May 6, 2009

Support for Incomplete Solutions
January 22, 2009
Several members of the Whole Tomato Software crew attended the Seattle XNA Gamefest held back in July. It was a great opportunity for us to get face time with quite a few of our customers. We received a lot of feedback some of which has bubbled up in VA X 10.5.

Versionitis (of the host environment)
January 7, 2009
Yesterday, I posted about a new feature in VA X 10.5. I failed to mention that the new feature is only supported in Visual Studio versions starting with Visual Studio.NET (vs2002+). While we continue to support VC++ 6, not all features we introduce going forward will be available in that environment. That said, we don’t currently have any plans to end VC++ 6 support.
For those of you…
