Code::Blocks 13.12 Does Not Recognize C keywords Like Scanf()
« on: November 11, 2015, 08:39:23 am »
Hello, I have used version 10.5 On my desktop and it works great. I upgraded my laptop to Ubuntu Trusty and  Codeblocks was installed with 13.12 . I have noticed that it does not work with C like it used to. It will not code complete with C nor highlight it. It works fine with C++, in fact, when code complete menu displays it is only C++ keywords that show up. It also does not auto indent the braces like it did before. It is as if it does not recognize pure C code.  I have loved CodeBlocks and don't want to have to go elsewhere. I have seen other problems described online with googling and on the forums but not this specific one.

Sample project, steps to reproduce please? Is it working in a nightly?
Compiler logging: Settings->Compiler & Debugger->tab "Other"->Compiler logging="Full command line"

It just does not code complete. When I type printf in 10.05 it shows the code complete like printf(""). But in 13.12 it does nothing. It really sucks. It works in C++ but I am not interested in C++. What the heck? Shouldn't a newer version work at least as well as an older one?
