* Description
This layer adds support for the C# language using the [[https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-roslyn][omnisharp-roslyn]]
language server with either the [[https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-emacs][omnisharp-emacs]]
or the [[https://github.com/emacs-lsp/lsp-mode][lsp-mode]] packages.
** Features:
- Syntax checking with flycheck (when =syntax-checking= layer is used)
- Support for auto-completion (when =auto-completion= layer is used)
- Refactoring
- Navigation to cross-references
- Inspecting types in metadata
* Backends
There are two backends available for this layer, one based on the =omnisharp-emacs=
package and a new one based on =lsp-mode= (language server protocol) package.
Both backends use the omnisharp-roslyn server under the hood however different
features are available. The =omnisharp= backend might be more stable at this
moment (late 2019).
* Install
To use this configuration layer, add it to your =~/.spacemacs=. You will need to
add =csharp= to the existing =dotspacemacs-configuration-layers= list in this
file.
You can also choose between one of the two available backends by setting
the =csharp-backend= variable when configuring the layer:
- =omnisharp= (the default), or
- =lsp= (testing)
- =nil= (to not use any language server)
To use the lsp backend, add `csharp' layer with =csharp-backend= variable set to 'lsp:
#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
(csharp :variables csharp-backend 'lsp)
#+END_SRC
** Omnisharp backend
Before you can work with C# files you will need to install the server by invoking
~SPC m s i~ (or =M-x omnisharp-install-server=). Otherwise, if this fails for you, please see
[[https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-emacs/blob/master/doc/server-installation.md][omnisharp-emacs/doc/server-installation.md]].
While the server will start automatically it may still be required for you to start
it manually using ~SPC m s s~ (or =M-x omnisharp-start-omnisharp-server=). It will
prompt a path to your .csproj or .sln file.
* Caveats
- You should use =dotnet= CLI tool from [[https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/core][.NET Core download page]] or an IDE like
Visual Studio or Xamarin Studio to manage solution and project files.
- Debugging on command line is possible using [[https://github.com/mono/sdb][SDB]].
- There can be *only one server* running at the same time using the =omnisharp= backend.
To switch to a different solution/project you need to invoke ~SPC m s S~ and ~SPC m s s~ to stop
current server and start another one pointing to another solution/project.
- LSP backend supports multiple concurrent language servers/projects loaded.
* Key bindings for the omnisharp backend
The following key bindings are available when using the =omnisharp= backend.
LSP-backend uses key bindings that are common for all layers/languages using the =lsp= layer.
