Creating Add-in files from C# source...

AnthonyAtkins

I've decided to convert our VBA tools to Add-ins utilizing Visual Studio, by way of C#. I'd now like to be able to distribute this new toolbar with converted tools to my co-workers, but I do not see an instance of Eclipse for C#.

How do I go about creating the Add-in files for my add-ins that were created in C# so that I can distribute my tools throughout my department?

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Hi Anthony,

Eclipse is a development environment (IDE) for the JAVA language. You need to use Visual Studio for C#. Once you install the ArcObjects SDK, Visual Studio will have wizards to help create Addins.

I put together a little tutorial for people moving VBA tools to C# Add-Ins:
