Is it possible to use Visual Studio 2017(for c++) as portalbe?

Question

C++ / C#

There is a need to use visual studio (for c ++) on different computers where it is not there, I can not install it. I need to somehow bring a portable version, is there such a possibility? If not, please advise a good (pleasant to the eye, preferably :D ) IDE with a compiler for c++.
Thank you.

As I understand it, CLion can be downloaded as a zip archive, unpacked to a USB flash drive and carried with you. But he paid, it turns out.

Answer 2

90% that in any way - vezhla writes a lot to the system directories - you'll clean up the figs later.
Try not exactly an IDE, but: Sublime Text, VS Code. Compilers like gcc can be attached to them without any problems.

Answer 3

let's start from the end:
- love c++ IDE
search engines - however, as far as I know, none of them can be configured by portalbe (however - google help)
- why can't you install VS2017? if not, or access to the network is limited, you can make a local copy of the installation kit , roll it onto a USB flash drive, and install from it
- if there is not enough disk space, you can throw out quite a lot from the VS2017 C ++ components, such a set of https is enough for initial training ://i.imgur.com/4vzrFmo.png (SDK according to OS version)
for the same purposes, you can search for earlier versions, for them there were also iso* downloads, and for versions where there was no community edition yet, there were free Express editions (iso*)
* - again, we write to a USB flash drive and put it anywhere

Eclipse works standalone, there are builds with a built-in JRE, in which case Java is not needed on the computer.
But there may be problems with the compiler - Eclipse (and other IDEs) do not have their own compiler.
Usually under Windows MSVC or mingw is used.
MSVC most likely cannot be made portable either.
mingw - you can. But to use it in Eclipse, you need to set up Windows environment variables. This can be done by launching Eclipse from a batch file, in which the values ​​for the necessary environment variables are first set and only then the IDE is launched.
With other IDEs, I think the scheme will be about the same.
