No more “Add Reference” dialog

(You may want to read this previous intro to the Quick Add Reference extension.)

We’ve just released it to the Visual Studio Gallery for free!.

Don’t waste any more of your time firing up the “Add Reference” dialog and browsing or even searching for an assembly through the assemblies list, add it from the code editor, right from where you’re typing:

We hope you really like this extension as much as we do, we’ve been using it internally at Clarius for a couple of months now and we can’t imagine life inside the IDE without it!

Note that only C# is supported right now. If you are a VB developer and you would like to have this extension working in your language make sure you let the WoVS Team know about it.

If you would like to see this feature already built-in in the next version of Visual Studio make sure you vote for it!

I had this idea too, so I decided to write R2P - a resharper plug-in that does similar things. If interested, you can find it here: http://activemesa.com/r2p
