Visual Studio - Feature Requests

Mahesh Chand

iPhone/iPad Development - This is one feature I would like to see to be added to Visual Studio 2010.
I would like to see a Requirements Mamangement software as a part of Visual Studio that can be used to write and manage all project requirements. I find this part (requirements gathering) the most confused part for PMs and basically the foundation of a project is not strong.

The option to omit Designer.cs files from a "Find in Files". I seldom need to get the designer files from a search and the designer files are about 80% of the results. I don't see a way to seearch *.cs files but exclude *.Designer.cs files.

Yes sometimes they totally ignore important aspects of a product coming from there users.

A way to maintain documentation associated with a project and such. I tried to suggest that in the Microsoft Feedback but they rejected the idea. They might have misunderstood my suggestion but they sure did not make any effort to understand.

Documentation can be system analysis and system specification documentation about the application but it could be references to programming documentation such as the MSDN.

I have not explored what is available in VS 2010 for creating and maintaining help (such as HTML Help) projects but in the past there has not been much support of that. More specifically, a HHP file must be created and maintained outside of VS. I think that the equivalent of the HTML Help Workshop should have been integrated into VS many years ago.
