Hi. I'm trying to edit C# code from within eclipse 2.1.1 but am getting
nowhere. The Improve plug-in doesn't seem to install on such recent
versions of eclipse; is there anything else out there that I could try?

Thanks,

Graham

Did you try SharpDevelop? It's well done but it only works on Windows

It's not really worth using the Improve plug-in, I'm afraid, so it's
not worth trying hard to get it to install. I've often thought a C#
plug-in on a par with JDT would be absolutely wonderful, but don't have
time to set about creating it myself.

For the moment, I think your best bet is VS.NET or SharpDevelop. (The
latter is free.)

Thanks to all who replied. I should have mentioned I'm running on Linux
(with mono), so most of the editors that support C# aren't available to
me. There's always emacs...

However, I did stumble across (basic) C# support for eclipse 2.1.1. It's
basically syntax highlighting and outline support only, but it's quite
usable. Others may find it useful. It's here:

Cheers.

Does SharpDevelop not work with Mono if you use the WINE WinForms
bindings?

Cheers - with an outline it certainly looks more useful than the other
one I'd looked at. If it had refactoring and code completion in the
same way as JDT, that could well be enough to make it worth switching -
not at the moment though.
 
Borland has a plug in for Visual Studio 2003

What kind of plugin does Borland have for Visual Studio?
