D365 Code Generator for Visual Studio 2022

D365 Code Generator is a lightweight, platform-independent Visual Studio 2022 extension designed to accelerate X++ development for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations. It instantly generates standardized, production-ready SysOperation framework code (Contract, Service, Controller) without relying on local Dynamics environment dependencies.

🌟 Key Features

• ⚡ Instant Boilerplate Generation: Create full SysOperation patterns in seconds.
• 🌐 100% Platform Independent: Operates purely inside Visual Studio 2022. No dependencies on Microsoft.Dynamics.* local DLLs.
• 🎨 Modern WPF Interface: Intuitive parameter entry, automatic casing formatting, and seamless clipboard management.
• 📋 Standalone Output Tabs: Review and copy Contract, Service, and Controller classes independently.
• 🎯 Dynamic Code Customization: Automatically handles DataMember attributes, SysOperation labels, typed parameters, and synchronous execution modes.

🚀 Getting Started

Installation

1. Open Visual Studio 2022.
2. Go to Extensions > Manage Extensions.
3. Search for D365 Code Generator and click Download.
4. Restart Visual Studio to complete the installation.

Usage

1. Open Visual Studio and navigate to the top menu: Extensions > SysOperation Builder...
2. Enter your Base Name (e.g., CustUpdateProcess).
   • The Contract, Service, and Controller class names will auto-populate (CustUpdateProcessContract, CustUpdateProcessService, CustUpdateProcessController).
3. Define your Contract Parameters in the grid:
   • Data Type / EDT: e.g., CustAccount, boolean, int
   • Variable Name: e.g., custAccount
   • Label: e.g., @SYS12345 or descriptive text.
4. Click Generate Code.
5. Switch between the output tabs (Contract Class, Service Class, Controller Class) and click 📋 Copy Code to paste directly into your X++ solution.

🛠️ Generated Code Example

1. Contract Class (CustUpdateProcessContract)

[DataContractAttribute]
public class CustUpdateProcessContract
{
    private CustAccount custAccount;

    [DataMemberAttribute, SysOperationLabel(literalStr("@SYS12345"))]
    public CustAccount parmCustAccount(CustAccount _custAccount = custAccount)
    {
        custAccount = _custAccount;
        return custAccount;
    }
}

2. Service Class (CustUpdateProcessService)

public class CustUpdateProcessService extends SysOperationServiceBase
{
    public void process(CustUpdateProcessContract _contract)
    {
        // TODO: Add your business logic here
        // CustAccount _custAccount = _contract.parmCustAccount();

        info("Process completed successfully.");
    }
}

3. Controller Class (CustUpdateProcessController)

public class CustUpdateProcessController extends SysOperationServiceController
{
    public void new()
    {
        super(classStr(CustUpdateProcessService),
              methodStr(CustUpdateProcessService, process),
              SysOperationExecutionMode::Synchronous);
    }

    public static void main(Args _args)
    {
        CustUpdateProcessController controller = new CustUpdateProcessController();
        
        controller.parmArgs(_args);
        controller.parmDialogCaption("CustUpdateProcessController operation is running...");
        
        controller.parmShowDialog(true);
        controller.startOperation();
    }
}
