I love this project and would like to contribute, but I'm unsure how to help, I could clone the project, but do not know how to compile, test and debug the modifications.

What I am aiming for: Extend the objects ("newItem" in "ALObjectCollector", "_CheckObjectInProject" function) with "Extends ID" and "Extends Name" for the extension and customization objects, show them in object list

Allow to filter for "extended standard objects" (similar to Filter Modified = true in C/AL Object Designer).

Filters (in general) to filter for publisher.

See subscribers in events (show number of subscriptions with link to objects)

Add Object type "usercontrol"

Great ideas, thank you! I will create a wiki page on how to work with the project.

TargetObject property contains the proposed "Extends Name" both for Symbols and local files. We can start from there with above changes.

I added the code required and started a pull request. I am not sure if I did everything right as this is my fiirst contribution in github. Can you please verify if you find the modifications I did?

martonsagi commented 5 years ago

It's been a while since you sent the pull requests and the current dev branch changed too much to merge in your changes. However, I have extracted and implemented the functionality itself in the latest 0.0.7-alpha build.

There is a new "Extends" column with the extended object name, which is a clickable link that navigates to the original object. image
