[402] ToDo Browser

Hello sean,

Sometimes you (or other people) will want to write
/// /// TODO: write description of type Foo /// And it would be strange, if ReSharper will skip this just because in other cases it generates false positives. The problem, actually, is that patterns are not as good as they should be. We tried to accomodate to many styles people use for to-do items, and thus they are more generic and generates false positives at times. If you are always using tag at start of comment and it is always following by colon, you may want to update your to-do patterns. If you need assistance in writing RegEx, do not hesitate to ask.

Could we use regular expressions not just to recognize the task tag but also
to transform it into a URL in the Task browser? Let's say I have a task like
// WORKITEM 555, where we have a bug tracking web app (FogBugz) that can
be accessed by substituting the item ticket number into the URL. Could the
task browser then jumpt to such a URL?

Hello,

We appreciate your feedback.

The corresponding JIRA request has been created, and you are welcome to monitor
its status at http://www.jetbrains.net/jira/browse/RSRP-37565.

Best regards,
- Development Team.

Thank again Ilya, I will modify the regex accordingly (I may take you up
on your offer of help as regex is not my strong point :)

Regards

Sean

Hello Ilya

If I remember correctly, you plan to allow us to choose to ignore suggestions
from context actions at specific locations in 3.0. Could the same be applied
to the items in the ToDo Explorer. This way, we would be able to ignore
specific items inthe solution without changing the regex. I have just opened
a Global.asax file in a web solution and noticed that there is a generated
comment which contains "// Note: The Session_End event is raised only when
the sessionstate mode".

Cheers

Sean
