Why, does visualstudio integrates with the gnu tool chain :O?
I guess not, but that's what I understood from your sentences...

Anyway with Cedet you can do a lot of stuff.
It doesn't however generats any makefile, but if you learn to write them
is not time wasted at all...

Gdb integration works quite well already, the only important parameter
for gdb imho is (setq gdb-many-windows t)

and then just try something you'll see if you like it.
