Rated 5 Stars (out of 5) - This tool was a great way to write some XML snippets in no time. Does what it said. Cheers for Snippy!

Description:
Enables Imports DataGrid

Created Issue: Imports DataGrid is disabled [5905]

The DataGrid used for adding import statements gets disabled when choosing c# as snippet language. I believe this is an error

Created Issue: Pass snippet file as commandline to snippy.exe [5328]

It would be great if i could pass snippet file as a commandline to snippy.exe.

I have a created a custom snippy.exe and using that for my purpose.

// Methods
public MainForm()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
this._app = new App();
this.languageComboBox.SelectedIndex = 0;

// New code starts
string[] args = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs();
if (args != null
&& args.Length == 2
&& File.Exists(args[1]))
{
this._app.LoadFile(args[1]);
this._app.SetCurrentSnippet(0);
this.refreshForm(true);
this._dirtySnippet = false;
}
// New code ends

this.setFileDirty(false);
}

If you feel this could help others too, can you add this functionality to your codebase.

Thanks,
-Ram

Rated 5 Stars (out of 5) - Thank you for this wonderful creation. I use dozens of custom snippets today because I discovered Snippy about six months ago. Protip: If you add Snippy as an external tool through Tools|External Tools..., you can then place Snippy on a keyboard shortcut such as Ctrl+Alt+Num + (what I use). Then whenever you sense that you are repeating yourself, productivity is but a keystroke away!

Created Issue: SurroundsWith get toggled off when switching between snippets in single file

I've got a snippet-file with Multiple snippets. When I switch between these snippets, the SurroundsWith gets toggled of after the second switch.

nhbill — Fri, 30 May 2008 19:08:58 GMT

since VS2008 doesn't support snippets in c++, how can i use a snippet in a .h file in VS2008? i created one with Snippy and set its language to CPP.

Does the snippet editor support VS2008 running under Windows Server 2008?

Thanks

Project Description
Editor for creating and modifying Visual Studio 2005 Code Snippets.

This version was created from the original posted at GotDotNet Code Gallery by generating code from .NET Reflector.

http://www.gotdotnet.com/codegallery/codegallery.aspx?id=b0813ae7-466a-43c2-b2ad-f87e4ee6bc39

This version was modified to allow C++ code snippets, although Visual C++ doesn't support code snippets as well as C#.
