hkCompCSharp

Features:

• Compile .NET C# files using the Microsoft C# compiler,
   
• View the compiler output in the Messages Window,
   
• Jump to the source of errors/warnings,
   
• Build and run the target application,
   
• An option for pausing the console window after running a .NET command-line application to make it easier to view its output,
   
• Change compiler preferences using a graphical interface, and
   
• Proprietary <hkCompCSharp /> tag for easily maintaining separate project-specific compiler options in *.cs files.

Usage:

• To compile a stand-alone *.cs file, open it and invoke the plugin.
   
• To compile multiple files that are part of a project, update the command line options field under plugin preferences or use the <hkCompCSharp /> tag to specify project options in the *.cs file itself. "*.cs" (without quotes) can be entered to compile all *.cs files in the current directory.
   
• To store compiler options in the *.cs file using the proprietary <hkCompCSharp /> tag, enter the following (for example) at the top or bottom of the *.cs file in a line by itself: /// <hkCompCSharp options='/target:winexe *.cs' />.

Notes:

• Requires the .NET C# compiler (csc.exe) distributed with the .NET Framework.
