I'm using VC+VAX as editer to code for many platforms, such as mingw, avr, stm32 and even remote linux host(Use samba to edit remote files, use plink to call gcc of remote host, and get output to vs output window). It's awesome#65281;

But VAX not recognize some gcc feature, such as the following code.

static void test(void)
{
	struct aaa{
		int aa;
		char bb;
		const char *cc;
	};

	struct aaa x = {
		.aa = 1,
		.bb = 'c',
		.cc = "1234567",
	};
}


And I'd like VAX to become a standalone editer very much. Or a vim plugin.

This code looks interesting, but does not compile in VS2013 Update 3, and the Microsoft IDE's are our main focus. Unfortunately adding support for gcc specific features is most unlikely at this time.

We don't have any plans to make VA into a standalone editor, let alone a Vim plugin. If you like the Vim style of editing, which does have a lot of power, there are extensions to make the IDE work more like Vim, which quite a few of our users use. These two often get mentioned:

It is an interesting product, it is also a complete IDE. Visual Assist is an extension to an existing IDE, so we are following a different road. If clion is the right product for you then I wish you good luck with it. We don't have any current plans to support non Microsoft IDE's or compilers at this time.
