I’m a c# / visual Studio developer. I’m porting some of my WP7 apps to Android and I have gotten pretty used to Eclipse. I’ve read some “differences” documents but still have a couple burnning questions . . .
in VS I drag a button to the surface and assign a method name for onclick and it generates the method outline for me in my source file. I can’t see how to do this in Eclipse – can I?
in Vs if I put my cursor over a variable or method name I get a dropdown that has a “Go to” option and a “find all references” option. these are really handy. Can I do that in Eclipse?
You’re developing Android projects in Eclipse, so I will base my answers on that. I also guess you installed the Android Developer Pack plugin.
In the ADT plugin for Java, you can open a layout.xml and see its “Graphical Layout”. You can drag UI components there, but it won’t generate you code for handling events.
For the second question, in Eclipse you have to right-click on the variable or method and go to the “References” menu. Or you can learn the keyboard shortcuts and it becomes easier.
