Re: Embedded Ruby in a MSVC++ project?

Clifford,

Sorry, I'm not sure how to tweak VS to this degree. I'd suggest the
newsgroup mentioned in the last msg.

[I'm really not a good GUI user, I use the free .NET Framework SDK
command line tools, and a programmer's editor. Anyway, I'm more
interested in getting Ruby IL compilers for .NET first, then getting
Ruby working in Visual Studio.]

I'll try to ask around and see if I can get some more success with Ruby
language support.

Since we're talking about tweaking VS, there is a new tool that might be
interesting to you:

PowerToys for Visual Studio
http://www.gotdotnet.com...

"PowerToys for Visual Studio .NET 2003 are a collection of cool
utilities and tools developed by Microsoft that enhance Visual Studio.
This initial collection of PowerToys will allow you to fine-tune Visual
Studio's hidden registry settings, add comments and build help files,
load files from the command line and create custom IDE window layouts.
All of the PowerToys for Visual Studio .NET 2003 releases also include
the source code for you to freely modify and distribute to your hearts
content."

ps: Ben, sorry for misunderstanding your original VC question.

That's great news, thanks Lee.

I have a much simpler VS question. In Tools->Options->Text Editor, there
is a list of supported languages. You can set the indenting depths and
tab usage for each language. Lots of folk here are editing Ruby using
VS, but there doesn't appear to be a way to add Ruby as a recognised
language - obviously not for debugging purposes but even for editing.
Anyone have a clue how to fix this? It seems amazing to me that a
sophisticated IDE like this doesn't have extensible editor settings...

Clifford.
