PLiX (Programming Language in XML) / News: Recent posts

Covers through changeset 75. Adds support for Reflector 5.1 and fixes some VS2008 setup issues. This release was originally dropped with the ORM project in April, no changes have been made since that time.

Includes changes up to changeset 70. Release includes documentation updates, Snippet Preview Window bug fixes in VS2005 and (especially) VS2008, and Reflector plugin enhancements. Synchronized with the ORM project drop.

Setup now targets both Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2008 (Orcas). Please run Setup.bat to correctly register the Visual Studio package on all installed targets.

A Field Generator Demo has also been added as a download. This project shows incremental changes to a typical PLiX generation transform and data.

Adds operator precedence tables to formatters, thereby removing unneeded parentheses from the generated output.

Adds 'PLiX Snippet Preview Window' command to Visual Studio 2005 (located under View\Other Windows). The snippet preview window formats any 100% PLiX element that is currently selected in the active XML editor. The preview window can be used to change the formatter language as well as view the nearest selected element or any (pure PLiX) parent elements.... read more
