After Google I couldn't find As-you-type spell-checking for VS2012.
I have used one for VS210. I don't remember name of it which was quite useful to avoid spell mistakes in Aspx/razor Views
Does anyone know any free plugin,extension for VS2012?
Here's a spell checker you might try for VS 2012. You could download it from the Visual Studio Extensions Gallery.

We have a QA tool (SmartBear's TestComplete) that uses javascript as a scripting language, but names the file with a ".sj" extension instead of ".js". I would like to use Visual Studio Code to edit those files, with all the nice intellisense and other tooling that comes with it, but I can't figure out how to configure it to recognize .sj files as javascript files. Any ideas?
Answering my own question, just for future readers that may be searching for the same thing.
According to a tweet from #code, this is not yet possible, but is coming "soon".
Using the new Visual Studio Code editor vs 1. This is not the full Visual Studio IDE but their atom.io based code editor. I would like to install plugins specifically for spell check and formatting my code. How can I do this?
I've followed instructions here: Is there a command for formatting HTML in the Atom editor?
but realized that I do not have a install plugin command.
It's been a few months since the question was asked (and answered), but thankfully, things have changed!
VSCode now support extensions!
Here's a relevant excerpt from the above blog post:
Extension Marketplace/Gallery
To complement the extensibility mechanism, we have also launched an in product gallery and web based extension marketplace. These allow you to discover and install extensions. To open this up in VSCode, simply hit F1 and select Extensions: Install Extensions.
Alternatively, you can browse the Extension Marketplace at https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/#VSCode.
I gave the marketplace a quick search and easily found multiple extensions for spelling and source formatting, but I'll forego making any specific recommendations since everyone's requirements are different.
For anyone looking to write their own extensions for VSCode, take a look at the documentation for extending VSCode, as it has a lot of the information you'd need to start writing your own extensions.
Lastly, thanks to Daniel for his comment. It helped me find the information I needed, but to save future visitors some time, I thought it was worth sharing my findings.
Plugin support is not currently enabled in the VSCode editor. The development team were not happy with the plugin API, so they have disabled them until further work can be made on this.

Nowadays you can use Prettier and Code Spell Checker for the purposes.
Here are some use case for spell check:
Load a CSS, JavaScript, Text, etc. file. Words not in the dictionary files will have a squiggly underline below the text.
To see the list of suggestions just click on the 💡 (lightbulb) in the left hand margin. You have the option to add your own words to the workspace dictionary.
I love the old school editors because they enable users to absolutely fly through their code, editing almost as fast as they can think.
However, they suck balls at awareness of their environment, lacking robust implementations of features like Intellisense (pre-emptive strike: no, there really isn't an intellisense implementation in emacs that is trivial to install and doesn't suck) and common refactorings (pre-emptive strike #2: "global search and replace" does not a refactoring tool make). (i.e. It would be nice to be able to use nothing but vim to develop in .Net, but at the moment it is an ill-conceived undertaking at best).
I love Visual Studio/Eclipse/XCode because they are so integrated with their environments that I almost never need to look up API documentation, and can refactor fearlessly.
However, they suck balls at basic text manipulation and macros (relative to vi/emacs), are not available on all platforms (with exception of Eclipse), are likely either going to change nontrivially or perhaps just not be around in the next 10-20 years, and most importantly, are unable to run tetris.
Will we ever see the day when emacs or vi will be able to be as tightly integrated with .Net, Java and Objective-C projects as Visual Studio, Eclipse and XCode?
If not, is it because of proprietary concerns? (i.e. would require emacs to ship with a copy of the .Net framework)? Or is it just because at the moment our team doesn't have the manpower?
Why not load a Vi / Emacs emulator into Visual Studio / Eclipse and get the best of both worlds?
There are free versions of both for Visual Studio 2010 and above.
VsVim - Free
Emacs Emulator - Free
ViEmu - License Fee, works prior to VS 2010
Eclipse has some as well.
Vrapper
See eclim which provides Eclipse features for Emacs/Vim, so you can work in your favorite editor while having intelligent completion and other features supported by an Eclipse backend.
If we don't have the manpower to implement these features natively then the best we can do is to utilize the features implemented by others.
I think a significant part of the reason is technical and is due to Elisp: Elisp is very slow, and it lacks libraries. A good IDE requires a good parser, various auxiliary data-structures, and needs to be fast (e.g. parsing many files).
Is there any IDE which allow to produce .fmx file extension, Actually i am developing filemaker plugin with .fmx extension so that i can simply put it in "Extension" folder in where tha all plugin is resided used by filemaker pro application software and start using, when i tried to search extension .fmx in visual basic 2008 then it didn't show any result , still i am searching over internet, but i am not able to find. please sugest me some alternative, or some thing related
Thanks,
Nishant
FileMaker plug-ins are regular Win32 DLLs. The .fmx extension is just a custom extension. I'm not sure you can produce such a DLL with Visual Basic or C# (but I'm not an expert in these); you might have to use Visual C++.
Check out http://www.dotnet2fm.com/ They provide a tool to write filemaker plugin in c#
To be more precise, when I used eclipse for java, every time I typed it would check for errors. For example, if I typed a line and forgot a semi-colon, eclipse underlined the area in red and gave me an error, same with misspellings, variable names that have not been defined, etc, etc, etc.
I'm now using Visual Studio 2008 (as the teacher requires it for C++) and I was wondering if there is a way to have it do the same as eclipse does? This feature is really handy and cuts my coding time in nearly a third as I don't have to backtrack near as much.
Thanks in advance for the heads up!
PS: Sorry if it's not called "auto-compile", was the only descriptive term I could think of that made a remote amount of sense!
No, there is not support for full background compilation, but it will try to check your syntax for you, although it's not great at it. Visual Studio 2010 does a better job at catching errors before compile time, but it's not exactly something to rely on. C++ is a much, much more complex language than Java...
Visual Assist X has such a feature. Unfortunately it's not cheap, and doesn't work with Express editions...
You can use the ReSharper plug-in to do it (and ReSharper offers a -lot- of other functionality also). It would be great functionality to have out-of-the-box though.
