how to use it by vs2005.

after I install it ,but in my project I edit vm file that is still like before.how to do it?

Nice work Jonathon, thanks for sharing...

Thanks for you work. I think it is really important to have intellisense facilities, specially to make life easier to newcomers like me. Great job. Thanks again and keep this contribution alive, please!!

Hi,

We're starting out with the Castle stack. We've a end-to-end prototype ready. I've also got the contrib strongly-typed View code integrated and we've got jquery integrated. Good times.

I was also bouyed that there was a new 2008-compatible release of the VS integration. Installed the above, no change. New Project -> has no Castle Projects available. Also no view / intellisense changes.

Am I missing something ? Tried reboot - no effect.

cheers, ian

CVSI is definitely a huge help - thanks for doing such a great job. 

I've run across one small issue using version 0.3.1 in VS2005 & 2008 that I thought I'd pass along.  Colorization and intellisense stops when adding attributes to existing $Form code, specifically when I type the percent siqn that precedes the attribute list.  Oddly, I can type everying but %, then insert the % character last, and it works.  I'm also using ReSharper 4.1.

i still don't understand i have installed the castle and the CVSI, but it doesn't show up in the wizard :s

what could be?

i installed vs2005 and installed the CVSI, and nothing happens too 

The Velocity/HTML-Parser has an error. It is not able to handle the following simple example:

 <p>Some text</p> <!-- A comment -->

At the end of the comment it signals an error. The error output is as follows:

The parser has been pre-emptively terminated because it appears as if the parser is stuck. [In ParseXmlRestElement()]
Expected 'XmlTagStart' but was 'XmlComment'
Expected 'XmlForwardSlash' but was 'XmlComment'
Expected '>'

Obviously it doesn't expect a comment there but a tag.

I have installed above msi installer still i am got getting intellisense in vm file. I am using VS 2008 trail version. I havent installed any thing for nVelocity just referring ddl which is provided in http://builds.castleproject.org/ (latest successful version). Do i need to install anything for nVelocity? and also how get the intellisense in vm file?

I tried in blank file its not showing and also i have seen HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\Default Editors\ - it has only default registry. Can you please tel me steps which i need to follow to work in castle monorail with Intellisense using VS 2008.I dont have  VS 2005 in my system. i will start installation from beginning. Please let me know what to be done?

Thanks, it's great to have syntax hilighting for VM.  One feature to ask for though.  We have a number of .vm files that generate javascript only, no html (the idea being that they're included elsewhere by a <script src="foo">).

 CVSI gets freaked out and throws parser errors on these files because it's expecting HTML tags.  Any way I can tell it to just ignore those files?

 Ideally I'd like to see Javascript syntax hilighting built in to CVSI. 

I tried:
//<script>
contents of my file
//</script>

in the hopes of just not hilighting these files, but it didn't work for some reason.  Any other suggestions?

There's anyway to change font color for VM files in editor?

I'm using a black background and the plain text are black in a black background, in other words the plain text isn't show in editor.

 Take a look below:
