I've read a lot of tips about how to make Vim as an IDE like editor. Most of them are really useful, and I want to sum up them in this tip, and then add some of my experiences.
Here are some useful tips to read:
- Use Vim like an IDE
- VimTip64 Always set your working directory to the file you're editing Vim
- C++ code completion omni completion for C++
Here are some programs you may need to download:
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/
- diffutils-2.8.7-1.exe
- gawk-3.1.3-2.exe
- id-utils-4.0-2.exe
- ctags.exe
Here are some scripts for your vimrc:

After setting this, now you can really using Vim as an IDE-like editor.
I usually like to create project use exUtility, use "gvim project_name.vimenvironment"
You can browse project file by Project-plugin.
You can global search and edit them by exUtility-plugin.
You can jump tag and track code by exUtility-plugin.
You can analysis code by taglist-plugin.
You can choose buffer by minibuffer-plugin.
You can set clear mark by showmark-plugin.
Comments[]
vim-signature is another script that is capable of displaying marks. It does most of the stuff that showmarks does and there's no delay between placement of a mark and when it becomes visible. You can also place visual markers such as )!@#$%^&*(
