I have been trying to find some more information about the next Microsoft Dynamics CRM product (2012 / 6). Mainly I am interested in any enhancements that will be made to the scripting editor.
There was great improvements between version 4 and 5 (2011), the most welcome for me being the ability to share script functions across form/field events.
What I really miss though is the complete lack of formatting in the editors. Yes, it would be great to have intellisense and the likes, but I would be happy just to settle for a better formatting function (auto-tab) and some highlighting for better readability.
Does anybody have any information on where Microsoft is going in this respect? I am happy to do some reading if anybody has a good link to share.
Maybe there is a 3rd party tool that has good integration? I would be interested in taking a look into some of them if they exist, or somebody can recommend through experience.
Looking forward to hearing other peoples opinions on this one.
Thanks
I use a modified version of Tanguy’s JavaScript Web Resource Manager for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 project to store, edit, and publish my JS files, and I use Patrick Verbeeten’s XRM intellisense js for intellisense. It’s mostly seamless/painless, with the biggest bottleneck in deployment speed being the time it takes for the js files to publish. Other than that, no real complaints here.
