tokens in visual studio: HACK, TODO... any other? [closed]

what tokens do you find useful in visual studio? (visual studio 2010environmenttask list → tokens)

currently i have only:

  • HACK - low
  • REVIEW - high
  • TODO - normal
  • WTF - high

(only these - deleted some default ones)

are you using any others?

are you covering any other important thing with comment tokens?

any best practices? thnx


Solution 1:

Here's the ones I use:

  • TODO: the functionality is not yet implemented
  • FIXME: the code should be modified/refactored to achieve some goal (higher maintainability, better performance, and so on)
  • BUG: the code has a known bug

Solution 2:

I've done a combination of most of the above tokens.

 RED: code that simply does not work / compile
 // Error - This code is throwing a specific reproducible error.
 // Broken - This code is broken and will not run.
 // WTF - WHAT THE FRIG.

 ORANGE: code that works but is not right
 // Hack - This code has intentionally been hacked in order to work. Should not go into production.
 // FixMe - This code works but could be better. Needs better abstraction, maintainability, performance, etc.
 // Bug - This code works and was expected to be right but a bug has been found. (usually flagged post production)
 // Review - This code is probably right but should be reviewed for piece of mind.
 // Smells - Same as FixMe

 BLUE: code that works but either needs more features or more explaining
 // Todo - Functionality is not yet implemented
 // Note - Better explain what's going on. This is gives a higher profile to standard comments, and allows notes to be found in the to-do pane.
