Debugging UE4 with Eclipse IDE

Although I’ve used Eclipse with C++, python and Java, I’m using Visual Studio at work so I can debug UE4 source. I have subscribed to Epic so that I have access to the latest UE4 code at home - but my 90 day visual studio trial license just ran out. At this point I just can’t bring myself to shell out $500 for a visual studio license so that I can properly debug UE4 projects at home.

So I was wondering, with the general moves to support other platforms, are there any plans to support the Eclipse IDE via the CDT plugin? I see that I can open UE4 in Eclipse, but I want to be able to debug as well. Is that level of support on the horizon?

The debugging part of that question is not quite answered here:

Thanks

No need to shell out money for a VS Pro license - you should be able to use the Visual Studio Community Edition.

Ahh. That’s the ticket. Thanks!
