IDEs that can embed gVim as editor

Question

Are there any IDEs that can embed gvim as its editor? I found PIDA for linux, I'm wondering if there are any windows equivalent for this. I'm not looking for Vi emulation, I am looking for IDEs that can fully embed gVim (so I can use all the Vim plugins).

Answer 1

Other than PIDA the only one I know is eclim which has a couple of modes (control eclipse from vim or embed vim inside eclipse window). I haven't tried it myself but it looks like it supports Windows...

You can find a more comprehensive discussion of this with lots of projects (past and present) here .

Answer 2

You can use it with Visual Studio:

visual_studio.vim

Answer 3

NetBeans has support for jvi , which is a Java port of vim. For every day programming, I hardly notice any functional difference between jvi and vim (except sometimes ^W does not work in edit mode.)

Support for code completion, clickable function navigation, inline documentation, syntax highlighting, and other native Netbeans editor functionality is preserved. That is, jvi functionality does not remove native functionality, as I have experienced with other vim plugins that I have tried before.

Answer 4

ViEmu is an add-in for Visual Studio that provides a Vim environment in the editor. It is commercial and highly polished.

Answer 5

如果安装eclim， Eclipse可以使用vim嵌入运行。
