Ah, I’ve learned something new.
(1) In the “IntelliSense Directories” tab, I cannot just add a top-level directory and expect the system to traverse recursively … I will need to add each folder explicitly. For
example:
<toolchain_root_folder>/usr/src/kernel/include
<toolchain_root_folder>/usr/src/kernel/include/linuxBy manually adding these folders one-by-one, I am able to make the system find things like size_t, time_t, etc.
(2) The order in which I place these folders do matter. For example, toolchain folders should be on top, while project folders should be below.
—————————–
Question: Is there an easier way where I can just put define <toolchain_root_folder> and let change search recursively?
Thanks for the screenshot and letting me know it’s automated behavior. It is working now.
While a bit off topic, I still have issues setting up Clang IntelliSense:
(1) From the posts in the forum, I understood that we have to put in the correct flags (-D<xxx>) for the parsing to work. I might have to read up on Clang since I am using GCC… it’s a vague question, but any examples or tutorials for non-Clang users to reap the benefits for Clang IntelliSense will be appreciated.
(2) I am getting simple IntelliSense errors like “vector is not part of the std namespace”. Ok, I understand that the library files are in the VM and not in Visual Studio/PC, so I need to let VisualGDB know about the paths. So, under the “IntelliSense Directories” tab in the Settings, I clicked “Add Remote” and added all the paths in the remote VM, which includes my project’s source headers, the compiler headers (/usr/include/, /usr/lib/gcc), and the paths to my ARM toolchain. I can see that IntelliSense errors related to missing functions from my project is now resolved, but I still face issues with the standard libraries (such as the vector example) and things like “unable to find size_t”. What else do I need to do?
