I was looking for some IDE to code the DW CS5 and FW CS5 API with intellisence feature. I tried flash CS5 but nothing for writing DW/FW CS5 API.


Has adobe made any IDE for writing extensions for DW/FW CS5?

No, there is no DW-specific IDE. You can find useful documents here:

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_API_Ref/index.html

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Extending/index.html

Note that the updated documents for version 11 (CS5) have not yet been released.

Also, search the Dreamweaver Configuration folder for a *lot* of good code exmaples.

Hope this helps,

Thanks Randy Edmunds.

I read all pages you gave me, but there is nothing to start the better way of coding.


Well, Very Sad, Adobe.


Then, Notepad is next option for me to write codes for custom extention, It's damn hard for me to use Notepad as Code Editor.

I am regretting writing a Dreamweaver extension. There is no documentation and no support. Now I am stuck with it. Should have written a VisualStudio extension instead.
