I have been working with Java in IntelliJ IDEA (which I love) for the past few months, and I’m kind of used to adding the source code of the external libraries that I used in the IDE so that I can view it, I found that it was the most great documentation in most cases when I wanted to find out which method I could just click on it, "Go to implementation". Maybe I'm just too curious.
I am working again in C # in Visual Studio, and I kind of miss this stuff. I work with some open source libraries with which I would like to do something similar, as in IntelliJ. Of course, I could just add code to the solution, but I think that would mean that I would compile it with the rest of my code every time, and I am not interested in that.
This is most useful to me for libraries for which the available documentation is not enough.
I was looking for how to do this in Visual Studio, and so far no luck.
Has anyone been interested in something like this before and decided? Maybe I have the wrong approach.
Thank,
