Suggestion: integration with Visual Studio Solution Explorer

[CrispinH]

I generate code and put it (with a slightly modified file name) into a Visual Studio 2008 project folder and then compare the generated with the extant using BC3. It would be useful if the VS context menu in the Solution Explorer could display the same "Select Left file for Compare" and "Compare to..." that Windows Explorer does.

Thanks, Crispin.

I have added your suggestion to our Customer Wishlist. This is not scheduled development, but a place our developers go for ideas.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Integration with Visual Studio Solution Explorer

+1. I would love to have Beyond Compare integrated into Visual Studio 2005, 2008 and 2010 as a first-class VSPackage allowing features like: 2-way and 3-way compare in Solution Explorer, Object Browser and from the tabbed file editors. Besides just comparing files in Solution Explorer, I would like be able to compare projects (project files) too.

Thanks!
