I love the new Debugger Visualizer feature. Of the few existing visualizers, all have Delphi source code. Are they any examples to be available in C++? Is this possible?
There are some of our internal items that would would make for great candidates for a visualizer, but we would rather keep that C++ as well.

Just wanted to bump this thread - Can anyone provide a C++ example debug visualizer?
  I'd particularly like to write some for the STL containers vector and map. I started to trying to once but didn't get far...
  Thanks,
  Jon

    visualizer a little; you can find it here:

Hi Moritz,
  Thanks. I was really after a C++ example - I've failed, so far, to do one in C++ using the available pascal examples as guidance.

Ah, that's a great shame. The visualizers aren't a patch on the MSVC ones :-( And it puts some of my colleagues off from using the STL understandably.
  Thanks,
  Jon

Fantastic! Thanks Remy. I'll take a look during the week and let you know how I get on... Jon.

Here is a C++ translation of the std::string visualizer from RAD Studio 2010
    (untested):
    {code:cpp}
    #include
