This extension of Visual Studio integrates the Sample Browser of All-In-One Code Framework, which helps search for code samples whenever you are coding with VS2010. Along with the powerful filter, you can find and download the most proper & useful sample in a few seconds, right from within Visual Studio!

The first time you launch the search tool, a configuration dialog box pops up. You will be asked to specify a directory for downloaded samples,  and the connection settings determines proxy using, if no samples shows up after searching, you can try to change the connection setting to IE proxy setting.
Also, you can call this configuration box out by click the hyperlink “Configurations” on the left bottom.
How to use:
  • Menu command, Tools->Search Code Sample:
It launches the sample browser extension and display history tabs when last time the extension closed, if no history tabs, it searches for condition (Key word: Empty, all language, all technology) by default.
  • Code editor context menu command, Search Code Sample:
It launches the sample browser extension and searches for conditions based on the selection string in current active code file and its file extensions.
For instance, in the picture above, the search condition is (Key word: Form1, C# language, all technology)
  • Shortcut Key, Alt+F1:
Same as the context menu command, if no code editor is opened, it searches for condition (Key word: Empty, all language, all technology) by default.
