Jeremy D. Miller - Do you use OSS tools for .Net development?
Jeremy Miller started an informal poll asking “Do you use OSS tools for .Net development?”.
Does your workplace routinely employ Open Source tools for software development with .Net? If not, why not? Based on experience, I can probably make some guesses, but I’d still prefer to hear it from you.
- OSS isn’t supported
- Untrustworthy quality
- Company policy
- Don’t know the alternatives
- We only use Microsoft tools
I’m very interested in this question, too. I’ve got a strong Java background and have been using OSS tools very often. The experiences have been good and bad. Today I’m mainly using the .NET editions of the most famous Java OSS tools:
- NUnit, though mbUnit is surely worth a look
- Log4Net
- NHibernate
- Ankh, TortoiseSVN and Subversion
Compared to my Java projects this is a very small set. At the moment I’m playing with
Until now I’m very pleased with the tools we’re using. Thus I’m recommending them to you!
