Code Editor in AOT

Posted on by cpironmo 2

Hi, can the X++ code editor be accessed through the AOT, I'm wanting to change the method for toggling the line number to default to on but cannot for the life of me find the form of the editor?

Hope someone can shed some light on this.

    Hi

    As per my understanding if you want to edit a method by code, you can use the example below.

    str                treeNodePath = "\\Classes\\Test\\run";

    TreeNode    treeNode    = infolog.findNode(treeNodePath);

    Line             line = 1;

    Column       column =1;

    ;

    treeNode.AOTedit(_line, _column);

    Regards

    The code editor in AX 2012 is actually a representation of a Visual Studio editor. To my knowledge you cannot access it as a regular AX form.

    You can however modify and extend it like you can do with Visual Studio. The dll's used by the editor is usually placed here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Client\Bin\EditorComponents

    At CodePlex you can find some examples on how to extend the editor with new scripts: ax2012editorext.codeplex.com

    Hi there,

    This is not what exactly you want, but it should give you an idea how to customize the X++ editor.

    Thanks for your input guys, will look at the codeplex project and see if I can extend the editor have these on by default or at least remember where it was last left.

    Thanks again
