ValaBinding for MonoDevelop

Here you can find ValaBinding plugin for MonoDevelop. The same plugin works on Windows & Linux.

Features

• support for Vala projects
• references to local projects and to external packages
• debugger is working (now also on Windows through my Windows version of MonoDevelop.Debugger.Gdb.Windows plugin)
• simple syntax highlighting

Missing features

• code completion (works behind, no UI yet)
• smart editor
• refactoring tools

Future

I do not develop it longer. I started creating Vala plugin for IntelliJ, which is much better IDE. Unfortunately, this is not an open source project at this moment.

Installation

Version 5.0 works with MonoDevelop 5.0 and 5.1 and was tested on Windows with Xamarin Studio 5.1.4.

Version 5.4 works with MonoDevelop 5.4 and was tested on Linux.

To install, copy ValaBinding.dll to monodevelop/AddIns/ValaBinding folder (/usr/lib/monodevelop/AddIns/ValaBinding on Linux).

For Windows, you may want to try my portable package (includes MonoDevelop 5.1.4, valac 0.25.1 and mingw64 4.9.1).

Source code

The project is located on the git-hub: https://github.com/marek-g/ValaBinding
