change eclipse shortcuts to match Visual Studio

Is there a way to change keyboard shortcuts in Eclipse to match those in Visual Studio 2010?

I am a C# developer and I am used to Visual Studio shortcuts. I am now using Eclipse to do some Java programming. It is fun, but painful because my brain is hard-wired :).

after installing the C/C++ Development Tools (CDT) there should be Visual Studio scheme available (from Windows > Preferences > General > Keys)

more informations (with screenshots) can be found on Configure Eclipse to use VS.Net shortcuts?

I've just tried it using Spring's eclipse distribution (spring source tool suite) and it works

should be very easy

  • open preferences (Window->Preferences)
  • type keys in the search box
  • locate General->Keys
  • type the command you want to modify
  • modify the binding
  • type your binding in the search list to make sure no other command is using the same binding

tadaa!

p.s.: a c# ide plugin for eclipse would be great. i'm a java/eclipse rcp developer, but i like c# as language. i haven't done anything serious yet because of visual studio. it feels like some old java ide from the 90's.

Write a plug-in for Eclipse - it is not too difficult.
