Re: [External] - RDi & GitHub Copilot?

Hi Justin,

From what I recall, you need 4.32 or higher to run that plugin.

You can download the latest Eclipse and add the plugin. I know it's not best to run 2 instances of Eclipse/RDi but copy and paste should work fine.

I did some early testing with Bard but wasn't liking the RPG output. I haven't tried GitHub CoPilot.

That's what I found, but I was hoping someone else had better luck.


I have GitHub Copilot working with VS Code & code4i, but that can't replace RDi for me yet.
