Krugle, which provides a code search engine for developers, will announce on Tuesday the addition of more than 6.5 million lines of code from Microsoft’s shared and open source initiatives to the Krugle index.

By adding this code, Krugle users will be able to browse and share code from more than 500 projects hosted on the Microsoft CodePlex site. Users also will have access to code from the Microsoft Shared Source Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) implementation, which features development tools, classes and code samples for the .Net Framework.

Krugle’s capabilities include contextual searching. Last week, Krugle announced it would be providing code-searching on the Yahoo Developer Network.
