Source Code From the Visual Studio 2005 SDK V4.0 Added to Koders.com Index; Inclusion Helps Grow the Visual Studio Ecosystem
SANTA MONICA, Calif., March 2 - Koders Inc., the leading provider of open source and enterprise code search solutions, today announced the addition of Microsoft source code from the Visual Studio 2005 SDK V4.0 to its index of reusable open source code. In addition to the Koders index of over 550 million lines of open source code, Koders.com users will now be able to easily search, access and leverage source code from the Visual Studio SDK and create powerful new extensions to the Visual Studio platform. Developers can immediately begin searching the new SDK code at www.koders.com and can download the entire package here: http://www.microsoft.com/extendvs.
"Including the Visual Studio SDK in the Koders.com index will enable more developers to build extensions for the powerful Visual Studio IDE," said James Lau, Lead Program Manager, Visual Studio Tools Ecosystem, Microsoft. "Version 4.0 of the Visual SDK includes more sample applications and code examples that make accessing the Visual Studio APIs even easier. Code search is a great way to learn the APIs and discover opportunities to innovate on top of the Visual Studio platform."
"We worked closely with the Visual Studio SDK team to make this happen and believe it's a great example of the way Microsoft is reaching out to a broader developer audience, including open source developers," says Darren Rush, CEO and Founder of Koders. "We're thrilled to be a code search provider for the Visual Studio SDK today. We've used it extensively for the development of our own Koders code search plugin for Visual Studio. Now that the SDK is available through Koders.com, it will be exciting to watch the new ways that the community takes hold and innovates further."
