IDE for MSIL

There's any number of questions about MSIL on SO but none that directly answer this.

I've been using Textpad which does have a syntax definition file for MSIL and then using ILASM in a command prompt window.

I did find a reference to ILIDE but the link is broken.

Is there an IDE or add-on / plugin to Visual Studio / Eclipse for MSIL that allows syntax highlighting, intellisense, code completion, debugging etc.?

Use MonoDevelop

You can build specially MSIL projects. It's very useful for these issues, also you can use it in both Windows and Linux. What is better than this? :)

I made an extension for Visual Studio 2010 that supports syntax highlighting for IL files (.il) and includes projects with full debugging support for C#, F# and Visual Basic that support embedding and calling IL code directly.

IL Support extension

Enjoy!

xacc.ide has syntax highlighting for MSIL, and another odd 20 .NET languages.

See some screenshots here.

I have exactly the same question!

I have found ilide eventually :

http://nida.se/ilide/

(note : strangely, some links to ilide are broken, some of them even mentioning earlier links that are broken , but then supply a link that's broken too. I was able to dowload it and Installed it succesfully from the link above though).

further : http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=112895

seems a very good debugger.

cheers, ph
