[MonoDevelop] syntax definition of "addin.xml"

[Vasili I. Galchin]

Hi Michael,

     Below is your suggested development path. For F#, I am able to create a
console project with a populated file. I put a call to LoggingService.Login
in all the methods of my implementation of
IDotNetLanguageBinding .... in particular method Compile. When I select
"Build" from MonoDevelop I don't see my "Compile" methods LogInfo's! ....
Instead .... I see ...

I guess that this core code is called before "diving" down into
IDotNetLanguageBinding code. What have I forgotten to do to cause the
problem evidenced by exception trace!?

For writing a .NET language binding, there are a few stages of things
> you can do:
> 1) stub out the addin
> 2) file type definitions
> 3) IDotNetLanguageBinding for project & compilation support
> 4) file & project templates
> 5) option panels for setting language-specific project options
> 6) a syntax highlighting definition
> 7) code templates
> 8) a parser, to provide outlining, folding, class list, quick finder,
> and fill the database that code completion uses
> 9) a text editor extension subclassing CompletionTextEditorExtension,
> to provide code completion and smart indentation etc.
> 10) add Refactorer to the IDotNetLanguageBinding implementation to
> support things like find refs, rename, insert member etc
> 11) other things like code formatter etc.
>
> I can provide more specifics on any one of these.
