In case you're a Python dev, VS2013 now includes support. info at [link] . Has a neat feature to debug CPython & C++ together: [this video]

Two highlights from the release notes: - Starting with VS2013, we’re happy to announce that PTVS is “in the box”. This means when you install Visual Studio, there is a an existing “Python” download link which will install PTVS for you. - Mixed-mode debugging! Alpha introduced remote debugging on Linux and MacOS. Beta introduces mixed Python and C/C++ debugging. Please refer to the documentation or this video: [this video]

>[...] you're a hardcore PhD who wants mixed-language Python and C++ debugging [1] [...] It is mentioned. 1: [this video]

mini ASK HN: would there be any interest in supporting Julia in Visual Studio? (as a free/oss plugin). i lead the Python Tools for Visual Studio project at msft and would be curious if there is interest. as a side note, if you do you use Python & require Python/C++ debugging, PTVS now supports it: [this video]
