Re: Menu Search->Find Symbol not working?

Isn't really working... I'm using irrlicht.. irrlicht has "irr" as main namespace and
some subnamespaces such as "video, core, etc."

as example if I use:

Code: Select all

using namespace irr;
video::IVideoDriver *m_videoDriverPtr;
m_videoDrivePtr-> // NOTHING HAPPENS...
but if I declare the variable as

Code: Select all

irr::video::IVideoDriver *m_videoDriverPtr; // DISPLAY CODE COMPLETITION
For the navigation is the same.. if the variable is full namespace-path declared,
then navigation as "go to declaration/implementation" works.

under my own code sometime it does work..sometimes it doesn't.

"Quick Outline" is working out of the box and it is just great!!! I just need "find symbol"
to get basic workspace/project navigation :D

Can you upload a minimal workspace with project with 2-3 files that helps me reproduce the problem?
Thanks,

Here is a small project, using irrlicht. If you are in linux and you install the library,
it should work out of the box..

there is a class "Controller" with some comments where the completition isn't working.

About the "find symbol" I need to apologize... its seems to work. If the cursor is under
a "symbol" and I hit "find symbol" appears a windows with the possible hits.
But I'm using codelite less than 24 hours and I thought that it will appears a windows
similar to "Quick outline" where a can see all the classes/structures of my project/workspace
and when I start to type on it, automatically the list will be filtered (as with Visual Assist
of Visual Studio).

But I tried the funcionality while the cursor wasn't under any symbol.. and of course then
nothing happened... once I again, sorry about the all thing.

However, about the completition problem is reproducible with the small project I'm attaching here.
Hoopfully isn't my mistake again :oops: if yes..please let me know.

thanks again!!

Hi idhan,
I opened the workspace you provided, and did the following:

1. Installed libirrlicht-dev

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libirrlicht-dev
2. Enabled clang code completion in codelite, from: Settings->Code Completion->Clang->Enable clang

3. Rebuild the project (right click the project and select 'Rebuild'), this step is needed so codelite can "wrap" the compilation for each file with codelite-cc (a tiny wrapper that records the compilation line, which is needed by libClang)

4. Tried the code completion... works...
