Assembly syntax highlighting, code completion and folding for Visual Studio 2015

This extension can be found in the visual studio extensions gallery or download latest installer AsmDude.vsix (v1.4.8)

###Run Source Code To run the extension from source code, Visual Studio 2015 SDK needs to be installed. To run the extension, hit F5 or choose the Debug > Start Debugging menu command. A new instance of Visual Studio will launch under the experimental hive.

###Customization: Not happy with the highlighting or the descriptions. Mnemonics and descriptions can be added and changed by updating the AsmDudeData.xml file that will be stored next to the binaries when installing the plugin (.vsix). The directory where plugins are installed can be difficult to find, try something as C:\Users<user>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\Extensions. Please consider sharing your updates.

###Feature Requests: (desire something - let me know)

• Documentation for opcodes. Hit F12 to get full official documentation of the selected opcode.
• Proper Register Highlighting. E.g. When you select GPR rax, GPR al is also highlighted.
• Label rename assistance.
• Track propagation of register and flag state-change trough time (under certain assumptions such as no "jmp GPR" etc). Provide warning squiggles if brances are never taken etc.
• Create new file item with .asm extension.
• No code completion in remarks.
• Label analysis. When jumping to a label, check if the label exists. Check if labels are unique. Provide error squiggles if something is wrong.
• Code folding for documentation blocks.
• Improved syntax highlighting. Add label highlights.
• Add syntax highlighting for AT&T syntax.
• Code completion for labels in jumps. Provide a list of existing labels from which one can choose.
• Colored tooltips. Syntax highlighting in quickinfo tooltips.
• Code formatting.
• Syntax highlighting for the Debug/Windows/Disassembly view.
• Code completion restrictions. E.g. opcode movss can only be followed by an xmm register and not by a GPR such as rax.
• Track flag influence. Select an opcode that uses a flag (as input), find the opcodes that produce this flag (as output). E.g. select opcode cmovc or setc , highlight all opcodes such as btr, sal, sar, shl, shr, etc.
• Register rename assistance. Highly desirable but very challenging. E.g. rename GPR rdx to rbx, find which rdx, edx, dx, dl and dh will need to be renamed, check if renames will clash with existing occurances of rbx, ebx, bx, bl and bh.
