Objectives
Visual Assist v4 (an IntelliSense system that can be seen at
http://wholetomato.com) is a very usable tool, but it has a rather
dangerous shortcoming. Sometimes saving a file with the source code is done
with a mistake, and MS Visual Studio takes off the 'modified' mark for this
file. As a result of such behavior, there is a possibility of losing not only
the changes made to the source code, but the source files themselves (which is
due to the peculiarities of MS Visual Studio operating with files). The aim of
the project was to create a software component that would allow to avoid losing
the source code files when using Visual Assist v4 within MS Visual Studio.

Results
The work over the project resulted in the Source Saver COM Component (MS Visual
Studio Add-In) that shows a warning and suggests saving the source code file at
the attempt of its closing if it is revealed that the file is missing on the
disk.
Technical peculiarities
The Add-In built into MS Visual Studio fixes an attempt to close the source
code file, and if it reveals that there is no indication of the file having
been modified and no file on the disk, it displays a warning and allows to save
the file forcedly.
