As a developer, I'm using at least two laptops for developing software. I would love to have an option to transport my license when I'm developing. Now, I need tot think about activating the license on a virtual machine and move the virtual machine from one to another.

Add support for solution packager to extract files into the project after a publish to CRM - make it optional during a publish. Currently this would need to be done via creating build scripts and updating the targets. It would be nice if this was built in to CRM Solution Manager and could be controlled by the UI.

Currently it is not possible to adapt the name of proxy classes during generation.
Please provide an extension to provide custom names for proxy classes and properties.

Some generated names does not fit our naming conventions. For example special chars in german ("ß", "ä","ö" ...) or properties which will start in lower case or underscores in names.

It would be awesome to have the possibility to extend the INamingService implentation of XrmToolKit.

Be able to add shared files (such as proxy classes) into a VS2015 Shared Project, so that they can be managed in one place, without having to resort to building a DLL and using ILMerge

Provide the ability to add javascript calls to crm forms directly from visual studio.

Grid-like editor to allow bulk editing of attributes. Also allow editing all aspects of individual attributes. Allow pushing all changes to CRM at one time after all edits have been made.

With a solution structure, where every plugin has an own visual studio project its very hard to publish multiple plugins at once. (e.g. when a method in the base class has been changed)
Please support multi selection of C# projects, like on webresources by "Right click" > "CRM" > "Build and publish".

Thanks,

CRM Chart Editor (GUI) that would allow you to edit all the properties of a chart without manually editing the XML.

We sometimes have multiple developers working on same webresources. Ability to download the latest from CRM before start of edit and to compare server version with the original downloaded version before publish will allow us to know if some one else have make script changes while I am working on a file. This will prevent developers overwriting each others changes. Comparing local and server files manually each time you modify is not productive.

Currently, there is no easy way to update all the existing proxy classes (with their respective option sets). Right now I have to select all the class files in the solution explorer, right click, then click 'CRM -> Regenerate...'

Maybe there could be an option group called 'Proxy Classes' in the context menu for the project where you can either add proxy classes or regenerate all

Should be able to call an API to publish a crm asset or plugin/workflow assembly to the CRM organization taking into account all the XrmToolkit configuration information.

I know there is a ton of overlap between the CRM Solution Manager and the CRM Developer Toolkit.

If I develop a solution that has a Packaging project from the developer toolkit, I can ensure other CRM developer can deploy customizations. The only problem is that I can't right click an Web Resource in the Packaging project and quickly publish to CRM using the CRM Solution Manager.

It would be nice if the the ExtensionMethods or some other feature in the BaseProxyClass would return an option set value via text based on the [Description] in the enum. Perhaps this already exists but, I did not see it in the documentation.

Something like
OptionSetValue ov = new OptionSetValue(ExtensionMethods.GetOptionSetValue("Active"));

Is there some repository nuget where xrmtoolkit libs can be found?

I try to automate the build of my crm project trough azure devops pipeline but it always complaining about this reference not found... SS.Crm.linq

Best regards,
Nicolas

Should require minimal change - new compile target. Client only, leave aside workflow & plugins etc.

It would be nice if XrmToolkit supported the concept of versioning workflow assemblies in Dynamics. If you increment the major or minor build number of a workflow assembly, you can register a new copy of that workflow assembly with that new version and then switch over the workflows to the new version at your leisure. Here's an article on how it works: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customer-engagement/developer/workflow/update-custom-workflow-activity-using-assembly-versioning

I would like the possibility to register a plugin as data provider. Data providers are used in virtual entities.
