C# for Visual Studio Code (powered by OmniSharp)
Master | Dev |
---|---|
Welcome to the C# extension for Visual Studio Code! This preview provides the following features inside VS Code:
- Lightweight development tools for .NET Core.
- Great C# editing support, including Syntax Highlighting, IntelliSense, Go to Definition, Find All References, etc.
- Debugging support for .NET Core (CoreCLR). NOTE: Mono and Desktop CLR debugging is not supported.
- Support for project.json projects on Windows, OS X and Linux, and csproj projects on Windows.
The C# extension is powered by OmniSharp.
Important! Breaking Changes as of 1.2
- The C# extension now only supports .NET Core 1.0. Please upgrade any RC1 or RC2 projects to the 1.0.0 release build.
- Support for .csproj projects is partially functional on OS X and Linux. This will impact anyone doing .csproj development on OS X or Linux (e.g. Unity, Xamarin, etc.). We are working to address this in the near future. However, for now, you can use the Legacy C# Support extension.

Debugging
The C# extension now supports basic debugging capabilities! See http://aka.ms/vscclrdebugger for details.
What's new in C# extension version 1.2
- Adds debugger support for new Linux versions: Ubuntu 16.04, Fedora 23, openSUSE 13.2, and Oracle Linux 7.1
- Enhanced debug console output: module loads are now output, and there are launch.json options for controlling what is output
- Source file checksum support for breakpoints. This ensures that the debugger only sets breakpoints in code that exactly matches the open document.
- Support for editing the value of variables in the watch and locals window (requires VS Code 1.3)
