methods not showing in dropdown menu?

Post by Rory »

New CodeLite user here. So far so good, really great IDE. Just one question, does anyone know why all my class methods don't show up on the popdown menu that sits above the current source code file? I'm using CodeLite version 4.1.5770

I got reports that it does not on work on linux - I guess this is the case?
If this is the case, please report it on sourceforge (otherwise, people will report it - but it will never get fixed)

For a workaround, use the Ctrl-Shift-O OR use the 'Outline' tab

There is a dropdown list which shows classes/namespaces on the left above the editor.
There is a dropdown list which shows function/methods on the right above the editor.

And it is correctly populated for me (on Windows).

Note that you have also the 'outline tab' in the 'workspace view' which show the same info as a treeview.

Hi guys. Thanks for the replies. I just installed the latest version of CodeLite from Sourceforge on a fresh machine (xubuntu 12.04) and it now works fine. Not sure what the problem was the last time. The only thing I did differently was install CodeLite from apt-get before upgrading. This time I didn't go near apt-get at all.

Seems it's still not quite right. It works for some files but not for others. I'll report it on Sourceforge.

Make sure you provide a way to reproduce it
