Ref-qualifiers in Visual C++ - c++

Is there any stable version of Visual Studio that supports ref-qualified member functions in C++?
This says they're not supported in Visual Studio 2013, but it doesn't go into the various updates of VS13.
On the other hand, this says they made it into a CTP back in 2013.

How to install one version of visual studio 2013 with c++ 2010, 2012 and 2013 toolsets

How can I install visual studio 2013 with c++ 2010, 2012 and 2013 toolsets without installing any other visual studio versions (express or any other versions).
I need this so that I can keep my pc light and clean. Are there any alternatives to installing multiple visual studio versions for c++ toolsets?
I am developing a plugin for a program that has multiple version each compiled in c++ 2010 and c++ 2012 so I need those version of c++ toolset. For daily use I need visual studio 2013.
In the end I installed the express editions that use around 800mb each and do not add so much clutter.
MSDN's website says that if you want the C++ 2010 and C++ 2012 toolsets with VS2013, you'll need to install those VS versions on that particular machine. Link here
I don't think there are other alternatives to that.

Visual Studio 2013 User Defined Literals - Latest CTP

Microsoft is previewing a new CTP for Visual Studio 2013. Click here . How to check if it will have support for C++11 User Defined Literals?

Is there a feature pack for Visual Studio 2013?

Visual Studio 2008 offered a feature pack with which one could create code-frameworks for office-style applications:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=6922
Am I allowed to use this with my Visual Studio 2013 license? Or can I find a feature pack (or code-snippet) for Visual Studio 2013 which offers that functionality (Visual C++, MFC)?
The features of the Feature Pack were rolled into VS proper with VS 2008 SP1. They've been shipped as part of the base VS distribution ever since (at least in the versions that include MFC at all). You can now use all the ribbon bars, dockable windows, etc., without adding anything to VS as it comes out of the box.

Visual C++ 2010 Express: extension SDK available?

Allegedly, Visual C++ 2010 Express, unlike previous versions, supports third party extensions. I just downloaded the release candidate SDK for Visual Studio 2010, but the installer fails saying that I don't have Visual Studio installed (which is true since i use Visual C++ 2010 Express). Have I missed something? Is there a version of the extension SDK that works with Express?
Visual C++ 2010 Express (or any of the Express versions for that matter) are NOT extensible.
The Visual Studio 2010 SDK can only be used with Professional or higher (as stated in the requirements on the download page).
You haven't missed anything, but your source of information was incorrect.
