    Documentation addin

    Is there an addin available that would automatically add a date time comment
    at the end of any line that you are editing?

    I'm not aware of any but I'm curious wouldn't that add an awful lot of noise
    to your sourcecode?

    Wouldn't it be more productive to employ some sort or source control?

    Just an idea.

      Rory,

      It really is easy to simply put a '09/07/2007 RAL comment on the end of
      every line that I hit the Enter key. A bit of laziness on our part. We put
      a bunch of work on a change that we want to back out of. We use Evolution
      for source control and FAILED (like the F word?) to check it all in just
      before starting this new change that we want to back out of.

      Thanks again,

      Rick

        Fair enough. If you're genuinely still happy to do this, i'd suggest either
        Coderush which has build in User-modifiable templates, or alternatively the
        free plugin Framework that it is based on called DXCore

        Both available from http://www.devexpress.com

        Now coderush has many benefits, but for your specific case, you should be
        able to configure it to add the information you require using a custom template.


        If you don't want to shell out for CR, then I would suggest looking into
        the DXCore framework on which it's built.
