Features

Set your Visual Studio cursor

This extension allows you to set your Visual Studio text cursor to the source code location currently viewed in Sourcetrail. If the viewed file is not open in Visual Studio, the extension will open and display it automatically.

Acticate a Symbol in Sourcetrail

Whenever you read some source code inside Visual Studio that you actually want to explore in Sourcetrail you can use this extension to activate the right-clicked symbol in Sourcetrail.

Create a Clang Compilation Database from a VS Solution

As a Clang based tool Sourcetrail supports the JSON Compilation Database format for simplified project setup. This extension enables you to generate a JSON Compilation Database from your Visual Studio projects and solutions.

The great news is: This format is independent from the Sourcetrail tool, so you can also use the generated Compilation Database to run other Clang based tools.
