Sync Editing is the IDE facility to keep synchronized Class Members names in the interface and implementation parts of the unit.

Requirements

DXCore extensibility framework is required to use Sync Editing. This framework is developed by Developer Express Inc and can be used free of charge for personal use. DXCore can be downloaded here.

If DXCore is installed after Delphi Prism, it is necessary to manually copy RemObjects.Oxygene.VisualStudio.DXCore.dll file (located under Bin subfolder of the Delphi Prism installation) to "\Program Files\Developer Express Inc\DXCore for Visual Studio .NET\2.0\Bin\Plugins" folder. After file is copied, Visual Studio must be restarted to take effect.

Usage

To use Sync Editing feature move caret in Code Editor into class member's name in either declaration or implementation section. The member's name will be surrounded with the green border. In the opposite section of the unit name being edited will be marked with the green rectangle.

When green marks appear, user can start editing member's name. Member's name in the opposite section of the unit will change synchronously as user typing.
