Workspace Whiz is a powerful add-in for Visual Studio .NET 2002/2003/2005/2008 and Visual C++ 6 designed to improve developer productivity by making available such features as:

• Incremental searching of files throughout the workspace, global include/source directories, or user specified directories.
• Incremental tag searches either by identifier name or a parent class or namespace.
• Switching between the declaration and definition of functions.
• Tag completion at the press of a key while typing.
• Powerful code templates.
• And a whole lot more...

As of version 4.0, Workspace Whiz is free software for non-commercial uses.  Those using Workspace Whiz to develop software for profit (including commercial and shareware developers) need to purchase a license to use Workspace Whiz.

For the first time in 10 years, I'm doing two things I have avoided like the plague.  First, I'm charging for Workspace Whiz 4.0.  This primarily affects users moving to Visual Studio 2005 and 2008, although there are a number of new features already in Workspace Whiz 4.0 and also slated to go in.

Second, I'm raising the price of Workspace Whiz to $25.  I can't really live without Workspace Whiz as I do development, and I'd drop $25 on it in a heartbeat.  Even at the increased price, it is still a great deal.  Because the price is still so low, there are not volume discounts.

This version has the following updates:

• For the "Header Flip" command, handle multiple periods in the filename, such as foo.bar.cpp.
• Fix for a crash bug when loading certain tag files without the line number.
• F1 help text update for the Workspace File Open dialog.
• Handle the Foo.Bar.Baz.cpp, Foo.Bar.Baz.h, Foo.Bar.Bog.cpp, and Foo.Bar.Bog.h case with the Header Flip.
• Guard against an assert in History::PreAdd() when opening the first document in a session.
• Search for ItemGroup XML nodes anywhere in the XML data. This lets, for instance, MSBuild conditionals work.
• When the Include attribute contains a wildcard, grab the proper files from disk.
• The evaluation dialog pops up for an unregistered version.  If you are a user fitting the description of using Workspace Whiz for non-commercial uses (according to the Workspace Whiz license), you may enter the following code to remove the evaluation dialog:
  • Registration Name: (Non-commercial usage license)
  • Registration Code: K9MYC-KRF4K-6RDCV-T1T49-1EJPC
