 In ''$VIM/vimrc'', set ''compiler msbuild''. (There are [[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77984411/set-compiler-option-from-vimrc|more elegant ways]] to set this option for only C++ files.

+===== Setting up ctags =====
+Go to the top level directory of your solution, and run:
+<code>
+ctags -R --c++-kinds=+p --fields=+iaS --extras=+q --exclude=.git --exclude=.svn --exclude=.hydra --exclude=.vs --exclude=bin --exclude=obj
+</code>
+This will take a while, especially on large projects.
