Visual Assist build 2118 introduces support for Visual Studio 2017 RC.\u00a0Technically, support for the latest IDE arrived in build 2116, but we refrained from\u00a0advertising\u00a0build 2116 fearing\u00a0early adopters would\u00a0find a few problems. Alas, that assumption turned out true.<\/p>\n
Build 2118, and build 2116 for that matter, introduce no new features in Visual Assist.\u00a0If you have Visual Studio 2017 RC, install build 2118. If you are using any other IDE, you need build 2118 only if you encounter any of the few esoteric bugs the two recent builds\u00a0address.<\/p>\n
If you follow news about\u00a0Visual Studio 2017 RC, you will discover\u00a0that\u00a0a few improvements to its C++ IDE<\/a> are strikingly similar to features in Visual Assist, albeit essentially\u00a0decade-old ones: filtering of member lists, improved Find All References, Go To All, and Dot-to-Arrow. In the near future,\u00a0we will tweak\u00a0the\u00a0documentation and UI for Visual Assist to ensure\u00a0differences are clear and that you have easy access to both implementations.<\/p>\n Expect new\u00a0features in Visual Assist after the first of the year.<\/p>\n Visual Assist build 2118 requires software maintenance through 2016.12.12.<\/p>\n Check out the complete list of what\u2019s new in builds 2116 and 2118<\/a>, or\u00a0download the installer for build 2118<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Visual Assist build 2118 introduces support for Visual Studio 2017 RC.\u00a0Technically, support for the latest IDE arrived in build 2116, but we refrained from\u00a0advertising\u00a0build 2116 fearing\u00a0early adopters would\u00a0find a few problems.
