Sublime Text 2: CSharpreter plugin

Description

CSharpreter compiles and executes snippets of C# code. The currently-selected text (or entire contents of the view, if no text is selected) is injected into the body of the Main routine of a C# console application. MSBuild is invoked and the executable is run in a shell window. This plugin has only been tested on Windows, but may be compatible with Mono's XBuild.

With the default settings, your code will be injected into a program defined as follows:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;

class Program
{ 
  static void Main(string[] args)
  {
    // YOUR TEXT HERE
    
    Console.WriteLine();
    Console.WriteLine("Press any key to exit...");
    Console.ReadKey();
  }
}

Commands

• CSharpreter: Interpret - Execute the currently-selected text, or with no selected text, the entire contents of the view.
• CSharpreter: Cleanup - Delete the %temp%\CSharpreter folder, where temporary source and binaries are written.

Settings

In the CSharpreter package folder, edit c_sharpreter.sublime-settings file to modify the defaults.

• msbuild_path - Path to the MSBuild executable
• default_usings - List of namespaces to inject at the top of the source file.
• main_end - List of statements to inject at the end of the Main method.

{
	"msbuild_path": "C:/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v4.0.30319/MSBuild.exe",
	"default_usings":
	[
		"System", "System.Collections.Generic", "System.Linq"
	],
	"main_end":
	[
		"Console.WriteLine();",
		"Console.WriteLine(\"Press any key to exit...\");",
		"Console.ReadKey();"
	]
}
