Feature Request: Visual Studio Integration Package

Feature Request: VS IDE "Go-to Reflector" for identifiers in source code
VS 2008 already provides a "Go-to Definition" context menu action for any identifier that allows you to see the public interface for the type or method if source is unavailable.

Feature Request: VS IDE Reflector Explorer task pane
Add a Reflector explorer task pane to the VS IDE. Should load all assemblies referenced by all active projects. Should be possible to synchronize selected type/member based on active identifier in ActiveWindow (either live or manually invoked sync).

Feature Request: VS IDE Reflector Viewer window
Add a document window to the VS IDE to show the dissassembly using the VS font/color scheme. Support IFormatter, hyperlinking, etc. Ability to "Go-to Code" if source code is available (or a pdb with source lines can be found that links to source code).

Feature Request: VS IDE Reflector Search window
Extended version of F3 in Reflector, search through all assemblies loaded in solution for Type/Member/const with result list (hit highlighting optional) and "Go-to Reflector" or "Go-to Code" options for results (possibly in context menu)

Feature Request: VS IDE integrated analyzer/call browser window
Integrated version of Analyze (Ctrl+R) in VS with "Analyze <identifier>" context menu in any code view.

    Hi,

    I believe that testdriven.net add's a "Go-to Reflector" menu item for you.

    Thanks for the other suggestions, we will look into these for future versions of the tool. Getting some of these to work well might involve getting Reflector to build up its model from C#/VB as well as the underlying assemblies which could delay these a bit but they all sound like excellent ideas.

    Testdriven's solution does have a "Go-to Reflector", but it goes to the method whos scope you are in. Not very usefull. Need something more like the Go-to Definition
