Is there a way to set up eclipse to start on windows and connect to a wsl environment?
I want something like https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.remote-wsl for vscode
at the moment I'm using a wsl-version of eclipse (via wslg) but it's very clumky to use.
At worst is there any other ide (apart from vscode...) that offers this kind of solution?
If you are willing to use other IDEs, JetBrains tools support direct integration with WSL.
I use IntelliJ, PyCharm, and CLion on Windows 11 daily, however, I run, debug, and compile code in WSL. This also works with the communit version of IntelliJ.
As a suggestion to make IntelliJ easier to use: Use the Eclipse keymap in IntelliJ and change the package display settings. You won't even notice the difference.
Setting up is extremely easy and the results are excellent.
