This vsix extension package offers a Recently Used and Frequently Used list of source files in a dockable tool window, on a per-solution basis. It was mostly intended as an educational project to learn the basics of extension packages, but the tool itself is somewhat useful as well.
This extension uses C# code to demonstrate the following:
Create a dockable custom tool window in Visual Studio
Access the tool window via the Tools menu
Add a context menu item to any file in the Solution Explorer window, invoke an operation in the extension for the selected file (supports .cpp currently)
Handle various Visual Studio events (opening/closing solutions and documents, etc)
Open a file in the editor and autoscroll to the last active line (mostly working)
Load/Save serialized XML user data to/from AppData folder
Versions for Visual Studio 2012 and 2013 available soon.
Source code is available on GitHub with no restrictions:
