Hello TrudAX,
thank you for creating this tool! I discovered recently that AxSecurityEntryPointReferenceForm part is missing when "Create security privilege" addin function is used on Display menu item. On screenshot bellow, on left side you can see xml when the same is done via VS:

Missing AxSecurityEntryPointReferenceForm means field level security is difficult to do as no form/ds/ds_field security can be added/specified. Or am I missing anything? Thank you

the idea would be to have a way to test the query and see the results in a "table browser" without waiting to sync

Can you please expand the table builder by creating a privilege?

i cannot install the the tool because there is no InstallToVS.exe availible

Objective

Create a simple interpreter for the X++ language to quickly test specific functions without compiling the entire application.

Background

To test a functionality in X++ currently, such as understanding how a particular function operates, one must compile the entire application, which can be time-consuming. I aim to introduce an interpreter to reduce this overhead and offer a swift testing platform.

Example

Input:

LedgerJournalCheckPost ledgerJournalCheckPost = ledgerJournalCheckPost::newLedgerJournalTable(ledgerJournalTable::find("AAA"),  NoYes::Yes);
ledgerJournalCheckPost.runOperation();

Expected Output:

1. The syntax analyser generates and returns the syntax tree for this input.
2. The interpreter instantiates the ledgerJournalCheckPost object and runs the journal posting.

Implementation Breakdown

1. Syntax Analysis: We need a syntax analyser before building the interpreter. This component should accept the X++ code as input and produce a syntax tree. I need some help with this. It can be written in either C# or X++.
2. Interpretation: Upon having the syntax tree, we can construct the interpreter to execute the actions. I'll take care of this aspect.

Plan

1. Research:

   • Explore existing code analysers for C#. Useful resources:
     • Parsing in C#
     • Various Syntax Analyzer Tools
   • Coco/R appears promising from preliminary observations: Coco/R
   • antlr looks good http://lab.antlr.org/

2. Grammar Conversion:

   • Transition the X++ grammar to an appropriate format. Reference: X++ Grammar
   • Optionally you may simplify the grammar to cover only select functionalities: object creation, method execution with parameters, and "while select" actions.

3. Develop the Syntax Analyser:

   • Create a tool that ingests X++ code and delivers a detailed syntax tree.

4. Construct the Interpreter:

   • Using the output from the syntax tree, craft the interpreter to carry out the relevant X++ tasks. I'll oversee this phase.

Ideal Collaborator

For Computer Science students focusing on "Compiler Generation", this project could serve as an exemplary hands-on assignment. Your proficiency in compiler design, especially syntax analysis, would be invaluable.

Hello,

I removed my vs 2019 and install vs 2022 but i get an error while using cmd command.

I call the InstallToVS.exe and get the following error message: "Could not find D365FO tools in Windows registry."

I do not have the subfolder DynamicsRainierVSTools.

But I can develop on my local dev machine:

Right now it is very hard to work with cross reference from VS. you need to click on every element to see the code
It will be ideally to see not only the element name but the related X++ code in the cross reference grid. In this case it will be possible to identify for example is it a Read or Write cross reference

It is not possible to assign a label to the field group.

Can you please add this field?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I use OneBox VHD 10.0.37 for D365 FnO development. VS2022 is available here, and I would install the Add-In on this version.
The installation is successful, but when calling the VS2022 Add-In menu, it says the following error

If I delete the DLL, the VS2022 extensions are restored.

Thanks in advance for your help

I used the power shell comand and it broke my vs 2019 addins. How can I fix it?

Hi, I've updated a DEV VM to V27. After that I installed TRUDUtils, but no menu extensions are shown. It looks like the TRUDUtils is not loaded when VS is started. How can I fix this?

Awesome toolset. Thanks for your hard work.
Just throwing an idea out here, but it'd be nice if the tools that generated the labels would accept a parameter of a label file ID, and then tool would automatically create the labels in the label file instead of using literal strings.

Getting error in new updated version of tool when doing right click on form or table or any method or field.
I am on Visual studio 2019 16.11.31

I think there should be a kind of script to install the extension. The target location can be found in Windows registry.

Microsoft used to include a .bat file with code like this:

for /F "eol=! tokens=2*" %%I IN ('reg query HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\ExtensionManager\EnabledExtensions /v "DynamicsRainierVSTools-52924ab1-c4fa-47fc-a90d-a5d1e69986bb,1.0"') do set ExtDir=%%J

Another GitHub project uses a console application as an installer. It has with a single hard-coded path, which clearly works only in certain cases. I made a pull request with a generic solution, which could be used for this project too.

Hello,

When I try to install TRUDUtils by executing the Powershell script in admin mode like I always did on previous VHDs, it does not work. I get this error :

VS extension folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Professional\Common7\IDE\Extensions\AddinExtensions
System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Professional\Common7\IDE\Extensions\AddinExtensions\TRUDUtilsD365.dll'.
   at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)
   at System.IO.File.InternalCopy(String sourceFileName, String destFileName, Boolean overwrite, Boolean checkHost)
   at System.IO.File.Copy(String sourceFileName, String destFileName, Boolean overwrite)
   at InstallToVS.Program.Main(String[] args)
Seems that an issue prevented me from doing my job :(

I guess there is a slight version change that prevent the InstallToVS.exe to work properly ?

A 'template' go generated the needed classes for using SysOperation Framework instead of RunBaseBatch would be super cool :)
