Visual Studio 2013代码段/代码模板

Question

Ie in eclipse there is a place where I can define my own user keywords for autocomplete like:

word: else

And template to paste:

else {
    ${cursor}
}

Sorry if this is naive but so far I'm unable to discover such feature in Visual Studio. Does any one of You know where I could find that feature?

Answer 1

In Visual Studio these are called "Code Snippets". This feature is not related to IntelliSense.

There are a number of them built in, for example in C# if you type "ctor" it will create a simple constructor for the class you are in. For other C# snippets see here .

You can create your own as well.
