I was wondering if support for project macro variables (such as $(ProjectName) ) could be inserted into VA snippets, in a similar way that environment variables can currently be inserted. If not, could it be considered for a future enhancement? This feature would be useful for working with the initial template for new code files (just think, #include "ProjectNamePCH.h")

The one difficulty that I can foresee with implementation of this feature is detecting which project the active file actually belongs to... but surely that isn't insurmountable.

This idea makes sense. Are you talking about pre-defined project variables, or custom variables that you are somehow defining inside the project?

A quick web search got me to this page:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa288397%28VS.71%29.aspx

which is listing pre-defined C# project variables, which raises the interesting thought that projects for different languages might offer different variables.
