  1. In SharpDevelop there is a useful tool which allows you to load a VB class and then convert it into C# (via Tools -> Convert Code to ...).

    It currently supports source code conversions between VB.NET and C# (and vice versa).

    Since SharpDevelop is Open Source, maybe it is not too difficult to add this feature to SharpDevelop?

  3. When running a query against an EntityFramework Typed DataContext connection, and the assembly folder path has a comma in it, linqpad shows System.IO.FileLoadException "The given assembly name or codebase was invalid". The context connection and tables show correctly on the left, but queries fail to execute.

  5. Start LINQPad, click Add connection

    Actual result:
    - useful drivers (LPX files) are listed.

    Exepected result:
    - include more drivers, eg
    https://github.com/dylanmei/linqpad-soap-driver

    Ideally, this would be more of a nuget style listing.

  6. The posibility to define a .linq file as a "Template" (Readonly) would be nice. This would disable the script and would only be able to "Use as Template For A New Query". Another icon for the templates would be nice to.

  7. To fix "Error 2714" when running the "But I don't have NORTHWND!" Sample query, replace the text "Add connection" with 'Add connection' in the comment-section of that query (ie. Replace the double quotes with single quotes).

  8. now when a compiler occured, you got nothing in the screen.
    no results, no syntax tree, only error info.
    there are three kind of compiler error, lexer error, grammar error, semantic error.
    if the error is semantic error, the syntax tree must have been generated, so i wish it could be shown in the screen.

    or in a nutshell, show me the syntax tree when it is possible.

    i want this feature for debugging compiler. XD

  9. The very left column (for selecting rows) should be a rownumberer column. Showing the index number of that row. Handy if you are sorting by a particular column and then want to quickly see how many are in each group.

  10. I usualy work by batches... at one client I use thoses queries, while at this other one, I use a different set...

    And I have like 10-20 queries open, in a specific work context...

    Context switching is a bit of a nightmare....

    If only I had a button to save not the files themselves, but the specific work context, I could just reopen a previous context and off I'm gone...

  11. Right now we have some linqpad scripts that use 1.7.1 of NEST Elasticsearch and some using 2.4.5. But we can not share those/use them on the same machine since there is only one 'NEST' directory under Linqpad\Nuget, right?

    Not sure how this would be handled since you want to upgrade etc, but maybe the diretory should contain the version number in it? Then you could in theory have 2 versions downloaded.

  12. Have the possibility to create a SQL view from the result of a dump() !
    Linq is create to quickly extract complex data. If after you have just to click a button to save this in database it will very useful.

  14. The recent file list under the File menu seems to max out at 9. I would like the config option to increase this number (e.g. 20) similar to what can be done for the recent files list in Visual Studio under Options|Environment|General|items to show in recently used lists.

  15. Display the name of the region that the current line is in if it exists. My 'My Extensions' is getting pretty large now and I'm relying on regions a fair bit. Even so it's quite difficult to know which region I'm currently typing in so a status bar message or right click would be very handy.

  19. So I have data executed and in the results window I would like to click on a single row or column and get the query that I would use to get to that position and use it in c# code.

    Would be good for quickly generating a query for C# code.

    I have used this in XMLspy to copy an xpath value to clipboard by just pointing at an XML element
