How to Install Visual Studio Key Bindings in Eclipse (Helios onwards)
For anyone finding this post, if you need step by step instructions and you're using Eclipse Indigo PDT , the following should help you:
(Note: you will be prompted to restart Eclipse after installing)
- Start Eclipse
- Click Help -> Install New Software
- In the Work with box select or type your version of Eclipse, e.g.:
- for Neon (4.6)
- for Mars (4.5)
- for Luna (4.4)
- for Kepler (4.3)
- for Juno (4.2)
- for Indigo (3.7)
- for Helios (3.6)
- Make sure the 'type filter text' box is blank.
- Wait for a list of names and versions to appear
- Scroll down to find Programming Languages, and expand it
- Locate C/C++ Development Tools and check the box
- Click Next and follow the remaining instructions on screen.
After finishing the install and restarting Eclipse...
- Click Window -> Preferences
- Expand General
- Click Keys
- Change the Scheme drop down to Microsoft Visual Studio
- Click OK
To confirm the update, try pressing CTRL + SHIFT + F and the 'Search' dialogue box should appear.
Problem
Does anybody have a keybinding scheme similar to VS 2005 available for Eclipse? How to import it into preferences of Eclipse (I see only export button).
