No. It isn't a wxWidgets console program. It's a standard C++ console application setup by Code::Blocks. Its only include is <iostream>.
I wouldn't have thought anything about it, the lack of cc and hints, but I know I get them in a wxWidgets app. So I thought it was strange. And I'm watching a video on C++ and the guy's working with the console (he's using C::B 16.01) and his code completion and hints work fine. So that led me to believe that I have something improperly configured.
UPDATE: I now have partial code completion. I get suggestions for keyword completion, but I still don't have...not sure what you would call it. But it goes like this.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
std::string phrase = "Steak is good!";
std:cout << phrase.
return 0;
}
When I type
phrase. I don't get options like find(), length(), or substr(). I can't even force selections to come up for me when I use Ctrl + Spacebar. When I add them though, the code runs fine. I'm pretty sure I have something set incorrectly...I just don't know what that would be.
