At SWFox you showed a trick to convert C# examples to X#. I should have written it down--what was it?

Thanks,

Eric

Eric,

- Download the X# language addin for ILSpy from this website
- Compile the C# code
- Open the assembly in ILSpy
- Set the language to X#

Robert

Ah, that's it thanks! I'll give it a try...

Robert,

I downloaded the ILSpy project and compiled its solution, then copied the ILSpy.XSharpLanguage.Plugin.dll to ILSpy.exe directory.

When I run the ILSpy.exe, I am getting an error that it cannot find: ICSharpCode.AvalonEdit.
I have no issues using C# language options.

Using ILSpy.XSharpLanguage.Plugin.dll version 1.3.65534

Any ideas how to resolve the issue?

You need the correct version of the Language Plugin with each ILSpy version.

Hi Jamal,

I´m using the 5.0 ilspy binaries dated 19 Sep, the dll from the ILSpy5.XSharpLanguage.zip and all works as expected.

Hi Jamal,

strangely the V5.0 is build against AvalonEdit 6.0.253...So, this is the one I use too
and V5.0.2 is using AvalonEdit 6.0.0... That's why the Plugin is crashing with this version.

HTH,
Fabrice

Hi Guys,

The ILSpy version mentioned by Karl-Heinz worked fine.

Thanks!
Jamal

Hi Fabrice,

Initially I added ILSpy as an extension from within VS 2019 and after some digging I found the cryptic folder name which VS added the extension in. Then I was looking for how to add the X# plugin from ILSpy, and was found. Then used the easier method of downloading the ILSpy master file and created the EXE, then Karl's post helped resolve the issue.

To make the long story short, I suggest you create within the X# zip file, a readme file on the proper procedure to make the X# plugin available in ILSpy and a link to the correct versions to use.
