I only see 40345 and ...

Visual Studio 2010: Automation/Packages/Macros, what to use?

Microsoft seems to have little discoverable content on the differences between all the different kinds of Visual Studio extensibility.

Why do neither Visual Studio 8's built-in memory leak detector nor Visual Leak Detector generate output for my C++ code?

I'm running windows XP and Visual Studio 8 on a C++ project. It's obvious from the performance profile of my program that there is a memory leak, and when I downloaded the trial version of Purify it confirmed that I have at least two leaks, although, irritatingly, it would not tell me where they are. However, neither Visual studio's bui...
