All code in this repository is released, with permission from Luthfi, under the MIT license unless otherwise noted. (For example CHCore/CHook.cls or Plugins/CHTabMDI2/mPublic.bas::MakeDWord). An installer is provided and can be built with NSIS 2.46.
- Autocomplete templates with Shift+Space
- Use <sel></> to delimit the text that should be selected after the expansion
- The panel displays maximum nesting level, cyclomatic complexity, and code flow complexity
- The panel should update when switching between components, however Ctrl+M will force an update; useful after making some code changes to see if they reduce complexity greatly
- When component windows are maximized they are displayed in a rudementary tab interface
- Ctrl+1-9 will switch between the first 9 windows
- Ctrl+Enter will maximize the current window
- Shift+Enter will remove almost all the window chrome (similiar to zen mode in many other editors)
- Like the solution from Microsoft this plugin enables the mouse wheel in VS6, however this version allows the number of lines that are scrolled to be configured
If you intend to add/extend any of the components the installer expects to find binaries in
the CHCore/bin and CHCore/bin/Plugins directories. You should copy the example project in Plugins/BlankTemplate to a
new subdirectory and add it to CodeHelp.vbg.
To compile the project you need to have the WinAPIForVB and chlib type libraries registered on your machine. They are
located in the CHCore/Interfaces directory. Then you will first need to compile CHGlobalLib because CHCore and all the
plugins reference CHGlobalLib. CHGlobalLib and CHCore go in CHCore/bin, all the plugins go in CHCore/bin/Plugins
and must be registered as COM servers.
Note: If you make any changes to CHGlobalLib you will need to recompile all of the other dlls (CHCore and all plugins).
Thanks to Luthfi for developing this initally and allowing it to be revived.
