Visual Assist instrumentor

"VA works by hooking into the IDE in deep and difficult ways, so adapting it to work on some other IDE will be very difficult indeed."

That's bad news. I'm going to drop this idea, without their help it's difficult. Maybe one day they would have an API to their code
functionality.

Despite all of this, this is how I would have started:

1. Make proxy COM Interfaces by using CoGetTreatAsClass for the Visual Studio 6.  DirectShow Filter Graph SPY illustrates this method.

2. Route all the DLL imports from Visual Assist through proxy functions, by using Detours, this way all the custom Windows messages would be recorded.

This is painstaking work, it's not worth it.

It would have been nice though!

Cheers!
