SyntaxEditor .NET Languages Add-on for WPF

Code Editing for .NET Languages

If you are looking to add truly advanced editing functionality such as automated IntelliPrompt, type/member resolution, background parsing with AST building, syntax error reporting, automatic outlining and more to your applications that use SyntaxEditor, you need to get the .NET Languages Add-on.

It's easy to get up and running. With a few lines of code, you can reference external assemblies and other source code files to use for type/member resolution. Then you instantly have a Visual Studio-like code editing experience with full automated IntelliPrompt capabilities right in your own applications.

For customers who only require basic syntax highlighting, free C# and VB language implementations are included with the SyntaxEditor control.

Innovative Design

Automated IntelliPrompt Automated IntelliPrompt completion list, parameter info, quick info, and code snippet popups automatically appear as the end user types, enhancing coding productivity. [more]

Reflection Repository A reflection repository stores extensive data about all types and members that can be used by code. This data is used to resolve type/member references and to populate IntelliPrompt UI. [more]

Doc Comment Auto-Complete Simple key triggers auto-generate documentation comment stubs. Automated IntelliPrompt completion lists show available documentation tags, and end tag auto-complete activates when closing a start tag. [more]

Code Fragment Support Use this add-on with SyntaxEditor's code fragments feature to edit a method body, single statement, or single expression with full automated IntelliPrompt support. [more]

Licensing

This add-on is sold separately from SyntaxEditor and containing bundles, and comes in an Enterprise license option, which licenses all developers who have SyntaxEditor developer licenses (even single developers) to use the add-on.
