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).

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.

You can use it with Visual Studio:

visual_studio.vim

Ankit

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

Do you know if it supports vim plugins?

It does not support vim plugins but you can have a limited vimrc file.

Eclipse can run with vim embedded if you install eclim.
