Add-In Templates Supporting Edit and Continue

Last week, I presented Andrey Bushman’s new Visual Studio templates for Revit add-ins.

Furthermore, we discussed many aspects of edit and continue in the past, including the solution to use the Add-in Manager.

These two topics have now met and united, because Andrey added support for that and a bunch of other new functionality in his commit ↗:

• Revit 2017 class library (C# project template).
• Revit 2017 new class (C# item template).
• The Revit 2017 External Application contains a special additional configuration – Debug via Revit Add-In Manager. It enables you to edit and debug your external command code without restarting Revit.
• Templates of all projects include a search engine to search for missing .NET assemblies. You can use the AssemblyResolves.xml configuration file for managing where your missing assemblies might be located.
• Video tutorial on Debugging using the Add-In Manager ↗.

Please refer to the Revit2017AddInTemplateSet documentation ↗ to see the full context and list of other video tutorials.

Many thanks to Andrey for setting up and maintaining these powerful and full-fledged templates!
