Organizations create add-ins for many purposes: to speed common tasks, to ease code reuse within an organization, and to enforce rules and consistency among developers. Effective use of add-ins can dramatically improve developer efficiency and reduce costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWriting Add-Ins for Visual Studio .NET\u003c\/i\u003e is designed to get add-in developers up to speed in developing ad-ins in Visual Studio .NET and to teach add-in development to developers who want to learn to write add-ins. Author \u003cstrong\u003eLes Smith\u003c\/strong\u003e also provides enough real code examples to challenge even experienced add-in developers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmiths book begins by teaching readers how to use the Add-In Wizard to create the basic add-in framework. From there, he covers the manipulation of code in windows and controls, and the manipulation of projects. \u003ci\u003eWriting Add-Ins for Visual Studio .NET \u003c\/i\u003eexplores in detail, how to create an add-in user interface, including toolbars, toolbar buttons, and multiple-level menus, as well as how to create a user interface in the system tray. Smith also addresses the migration of add-ins from VB 6.0 to VB .NET for those developers who have previous experience in writing add-ins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the great challenges that add-in developers will encounter is finding the right classes from among the 3,400 classes in the .NET Framework. Smith teaches and demonstrates use of the Visual Studio add-in object model to show readers how to use the methods and properties and respond to events in order to enhance the power of the integrated development environment (IDE).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Apress\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2002-07-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781590590263\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4302-1101-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x178cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 552\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Apress","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44341352398988,"sku":"9781590590263","price":44.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781590590263.jpg?v=1777990216","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781590590263","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
