C# plugin for Eclipse

Question

Is there a good working plugin for C# in Eclipse? I\'m using a Linux machine so I do not have access to Visual Studio Express. I already have an Eclipse Environment working

Answer 1

Emonic is an actual eclipse plugin for C#: http://emonic.sourceforge.net/.

Here's a handy guide for how to get it set up: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/os-eclipse-migratenetvs/

Monodevelop is great, but won't meet your requirement not to have to work in multiple IDEs.

From: http://www.mono-project.com/Mono_For_Linux_Developers#Eclipse_in_C.23_Mode

• Black-Sun
• Emonic
• eSharp

I don't personally have any experience with the mentioned plugins. Any C# development I've done on Linux has been through MonoDevelop

Answer 3

From Eclipse marketplace:

aCute: C# edition in Eclipse IDE

aCute enables C# application development in the Eclipse IDE.

aCute provides a rich C# editor with error reporting, hover, content assist, jump to references... (using OmniSharp) and syntax highlighting (using TextMate grammar).

aCute also integrates various operations of the dotnet command-line (New, Run, Test, Publish) as typical Eclipse IDE wizards and workflows.

aCute provide supports debugging for .NET applications.
