Earlier quoted context omitted.

VS2010 has "Navigate to" on ctrl-, which is better than jump to file. It's jump to anything, type a class name, a method, a filename, a partial filename, partial anything, and it will match what you write against everything in your solution. It's really powerful and I don't click around in the source tree at all anymore.

While a vast improvement on the past, "Navigate to" doesn't find stuff intelligently like Resharper's jump... e.g. if I have a file "LabListView", I can type "llv" in the "go to" window and it'll be highlighted (I could type any combination of characters but I tend to use the capitalised letters). VS2010 just shows an empty list when I do that -- I have to type a complete partial name. I could also be imagining this,…

FYI, Eclipse also does partial the way Resharper does out-of-the-box: semi-partial and abbreviation.

I believe Eclipse also does "best match based on previously opened files" (sort of heuristic/guessing) just like you guessed the way Resharper does it.

I wouldn't be surprised if Resharper added Eclipse's features that are missing from VS.NET being that JetBrain makes IntelliJ that competes with Eclipse.

Of course the best part of Eclipse is that it's free and you get everything :)

Way too many Microsoft haters. BE OPEN MINDED. C# is a tool, like computer, as long as used to solve real world problems, who cares who's behind it? It's like how Apple fanboys are saying Object-C is the most awesome programming language in the world, totally biased.

Down voted as expected. Hater, identify yourself or be a coward.

I was fairly certain I would migrate off it if the project ever took off seriously. Can you explain why? Is it because the only reason it's closed? You just hate MS.

Reasons for down vote? Coward.

So all people who use Oracle database would also abandon Oracle since it's close source?
