I've started doing some Python Programming using Eclipse. However, I'm a .Net programmer and I'm use to the keyboard shortcuts in VS.Net 2008. Is there any quick way to reconfigure VS.Net to use the visual studio shortcuts. I've found this other question, but the suggested methods don't work. I've installed CDT and selected the Visual Studio Keys, but it doesn't seem to change any of the key mappings.

That's strange because after installing the C/C++ Development Tools (CDT):

And picking up the Microsoft Visual Studio scheme (from Windows > Preferences > General > Keys):

My binding are definitely altered as shown below (ok it's just a small example but it illustrates the change and all bindings mentioned by @VonC are there):

  • This did not work for me. I went through the steps and got the "Visual Studio" option for my keys configuration, but it did not switch to my typical shortcuts. – BrokeMyLegBiking Jan 29 '11 at 23:28
  • Did not work for me as I expected either. Installing CDT adds new commands for C/C++ development but does not modify existing Java command shortcuts. – farfareast Oct 04 '12 at 01:22

If the CDT Visual Studio mapping does not work, you need to import custom shortcut files for the usual Visual Studio shortcuts.
