2Radon Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) Sorry if this might be out of place entirely. Like this. Why does it exist for C# in Visual Studio 2013 but not for C/C++? In Visual Studio 2013 I see something like this for functions and stuff. Which I cant even find here in MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/query/dev12.query?appId=Dev12IDEF1&l=EN-US&k=k(printf);k(DevLang-C%2B%2B);k(TargetOS-Windows)&rd=true I am just a beginner, but this tooltip does seem rather useless..? Or can I set up to see something like in SciTE? Also, I wonder if it can show a list of my variables like in SciTE when I write their name. Edited June 20, 2014 by 2Radon

cageman Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/379453/useful-add-ins-or-plug-ins-for-native-visual-studio-developer Visual Assist is very nice for a c++ developer, but its a paid addin.
Richard Robertson Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Visual Studio cripled Intellisense for VC++ several versions ago (at least 2010, maybe earlier) because VC++ is so disasterously complex that the Intellisense tables are resource hogs. Unfortunately Microsoft doesn't look to be restoring the feature completely.

Unfortunately Microsoft doesn't look to be restoring the feature completely. Does that mean there are actually better IDEs than VS for C/C++ because of that? Or the other features still make it superior?
Richard Robertson Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 I've never used an IDE I like more than Visual Studio. Microsoft is actually just making the push to C# in general over native programming. C++ isn't Microsoft specific but .Net is.
