   I watched the CLion sales pitch video after reading the recommendation. Binging around for the features shown I then discovered Visual Assist[1] which seems to add comparably nifty code completion/generation etc features to Visual Studio. I'm demoing it just now, it's definitely worth a look if you have an itch that needs scratching. It's better to add bells and whistles on top of a rock solid foundation such as VS…

   I'm not the same guy, but what I've found: - No substring completion (e.g., like emacs's ido-mode), no fuzzy completion (e.g., like various JS-based editors), no acronym completion (e.g., like emacs) - Navigation bar searches are shit. You have to select namespace, then class, then symbol, and there seems to be no keyboard shortcut for any of this stuff. It should present a list of entities in the file, display full…

   Visual Assist by Whole Tomato Software [1] is a solid and well known refactoring plugin. For C++, it provides me a huge productivity boost. There is a C# version as well. [1] http://www.wholetomato.com/

   Xcode supports Rename, Extract, Create Superclass, Move Up, Move Down, Encapsulate. http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/ToolsL... I took a look at Whole Tomato: http://www.wholetomato.com/products/featureRefactoring.asp A couple of those features Xcode implements using code completion. It looks like Whole Tomato may be slightly better, but your comment is clearly wrong.

   Visual Studio with VAX ( http://www.wholetomato.com/features/default.asp ) is more than sufficient. The general objection to it historically has been "it's not free", but Visual Studio Code is Electron.io/node based, free, works on 3 of the major platforms, MSFT is in the process of enabling first-party support for using LLVM (I'm not sure if this is for the "Code" version of the traditional executable base --which…
