There's an add-on for Visua Studio which I use when C++ / Windows=20
programming, called Visual-Assist X. It adds a lot of contextual=20
features like adding member variables, intelligently renaming=20
variables/members across a project, etc. It also improves the hinting=20
that shows up when writing code. It's not free but I think it's worth=20
the money if you spend any real time with Visual Studio.

FWIW I really like Visual Studio but I would like to use Qt Creator for=20
new projects. Their IDE is nearly as good as VS, probably surpassing it=20
in a lot of areas. And your program will (more easily) be cross platform=20
if you use it.
