1. Issue Brief

I tried to compile the ycm plugin for my Vim 8.0in Windows, and I followed the Windows Intallation Guide .Following are the step I tried to do.

1) Already downloaded gvim80.exe from this link and installed my Vim 8.0 to C:\Vim; 2) Downloaded the latest YCM respos from here and did git submodule update --init --recursive; 3) Copied the ycm toC:\Vim\vimfiles\bundle and Installed the ycm in Vim with Vundle; 4) Raninstall.py --all inC:\Vim\vimfiles\bundle\YouCompleteMe;

Unfortunately, it failed at install.py, please check the > Section4. to see the details.

After that , I rechecked the Windows Intallation Guide and found this , does it mean that I can not compile ycm with MSVC10 (Visual Studio 2010) due to YCM may not support?

To simply compile with everything enabled, there's a --all flag. So, to install with all language features, ensure msbuild, go, tsserver, node, npm, and cargo tools are installed and in your PATH, then simply run:

cd %USERPROFILE%/vimfiles/bundle/YouCompleteMe python install.py --all You can specify the Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC) version using the --msvc option. YCM officially supports MSVC 11 (Visual Studio 2012), 12 (2013), and 14 (2015).

So I tried to specify MSVC 10 mannually to install, like this, it poped out another error below

C:\Vim\vimfiles\bundle\YouCompleteMe>install.py --msvc 10 --all
usage: build.py [-h] [--clang-completer] [--system-libclang]
                [--omnisharp-completer] [--gocode-completer]

                [--tern-completer] [--all] [--enable-debug]
build.py: error: argument --msvc: invalid choice: 10 (choose from 11, 12, 14)

vimfiles\\bundle\\YouCompleteMe\\third_party\\ycmd\\build.py', '--msvc', '10', '
--all']' returned non-zero exit status 2

Anyway, I want to know two things: 1 ) Does YCM supports MSVC 10 ? 2 ) If ycm supports MSVC10 ,how can I use it ? Maybe I used it in the wrong way(like specify the MSVC10)

Thanks for all the advice :) Have a Nice Day!

Although, I did note raninstall.py successfully, it still poped out ycm debuginfos as I open gvimlike images below

From the documentation:

You can specify the Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC) version using the --msvc option. YCM officially supports MSVC 11 (Visual Studio 2012), 12 (2013), and 14 (2015).

If you still want to use MSVC 10, you'll need to follow the full instructions but there is no guarantee that it will compile without errors. I recommend to install Visual Studio Community as mentioned in the documentation.

See the error message on your first screenshot (you can see the full message with the :messages command):

The ycmd server SHUT DOWN (restart with ':YcmRestartServer'). YCM core library not detected; you need to compile YCM before using it. Follow the instructions in the documentation.

If you still have issues or questions on building YCM, you should ask them on the ycm-users Google group. The issue tracker is not for technical support.

@micbou , Ok Thank you though. I already installed the VisualStudio 2010 Ultimate,I will try to compile ycm again follow your advice.

What's more, I could not use the Google Group from China because of GFW, if it is possible to discuss it on ycm Gitter channel?
