<h2 class="caption">January 2019 Update</h2>
<div>Thank you for installing the C/C++ extension. In the January update, we added documentation comments for hover, completion, and signature help.<br/>
<h2 class="caption">March 2019 Update</h2>
<div>Thank you for installing the C/C++ extension! We're excited to announce the following features in the March update:<br/>
<h3 style="font-weight: 600">IntelliSense caching</h3>
On Windows and Linux, the extension will now cache header information to improve IntelliSense speed for your code files. Support for macOS will be available in a future release.<br/>
<br/>
<em style="font-weight: 600">Please Note:</em> The extension writes the cache to disk in order to achieve this performance improvement. By default the cache files will be stored in your workspace
folder's ".vscode" folder, but you can change this location by using the <code>"C_Cpp.intelliSenseCachePath"</code> setting. You can also control how much disk space can be
used for the cache with the <code>"C_Cpp.intelliSenseCacheSize"</code> setting. The default is 5120 MB as the caches for individual translation units can be large,
depending on the size and number of included headers.<br/>
<h3 style="font-weight: 600">Build and debug the active source file</h3>
We added a command to help you generate build and debug tasks for single code files. Since this feature writes out tasks.json and launch.json files, it currently requires
that a workspace folder be opened in VS Code first. After that, you can press F5 or select the command from the context menu to configure the tasks or kick off a build and debug
session.<br/>
<h3 style="font-weight: 600">Configuration squiggles</h3>
We added additional validation to the <code>c_cpp_properties.json</code> file to assist in diagnosing potential configuration mistakes. They will show up as problems in the
problems window.<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
Additional features and bug fixes are detailed in the <a href="https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-cpptools/releases">full release notes</a>.</div>
