NWSGI 2.0 Release Candidate 2

The final release candidate of NWSGI 2.0 is now available. Except for version numbers, this is what will become NWSGI 2.0 as soon as IronPython 2.6 is released.

NWSGI 2.0 Release Candidate 2 includes all of the features of NWSGI 2.0 Release Candidate 1, and adds support configuring tracing, lightweight scopes, and the profiler. It is built against IronPython 2.6 RC3.

The following issues are fixed in this release:

• Add configuration option for Profiler
• Add configuration option for Lightweight Scopes
• Add configuration option for tracing

IronPython Extensions for Visual Studio 2010

UPDATE (Feb 28, 2010): The IronPython team recently announced IronPython Tools for Visual Studio, so this project is no longer being maintained.
 
Lately, I’ve been experimenting with the new editor APIs in Visual Studio 2010 to build some simple extensions to make Python editing a little better. Helpfully, IronPython exposes most of the complicated infrastructure (the tokenizer) to make the job easy. The documentation for the new editor APIs is still a bit weak; hopefully that will improve by the final release. In the meantime, the examples are the best source of information. There also a series of blog posts by Mike Feingold about the NDjango editor for VS2010 that form a great end-to-end example.

Download & Installation

Download IronPython Extensions for Visual Studio 2010 (and the source code; Ms-PL as always) from my BitBucket repository or from the Visual Studio Gallery (direct link). For direct downloads, just run (double-click) the .vsix file to install it into Visual Studio. Otherwise, you can use the extension manager (search for "IronPython") and install it directly from Visual Studio.

Features

The extensions provide three features so far: syntax highlighting, brace matching, and outlining.

In the future I'm planning on adding project support, templates, and (most difficult of all) IntelliSense.
