codeblocks 16.01 autocompletion configuration

(1/1)

fabix:
Hi to all,

  I am having troubles in getting autocompletion work when using a different compiler than the default one.

  The details:

  o.s.:  Windows 7 Pro 32bit
  codeblocks version:  codeblocks-16.01mingw-nosetup.zip   unzipped in   c:\codeblocks-16.01mingw-nosetup

  As long as I use the default "GNU GCC Compiler", to clarify, the one in  c:\codeblocks-16.01mingw-nosetup\MinGW\ , I have no trouble in getting autocompletion (e.g.  typing printf, etc etc).
 
  Problems arise when I use a different compiler, in my case a version of  mingw-w64  unzipped in

  C:\mingw-w64\i686-5.3.0-win32-sjlj-rt_v4-rev0\mingw32

  I thought it was a matter of settings paths in the autocompletion parser configuration, possibly setting where to find #include files.
  But I didn't found a way to set.

  Important notice, the compiler compiles code correctly, I mean that everything is working, only autocompletion a.t.m. doesn't.

  I would appreciate any help

Greetings,
Fabix

Ok folks,

  may be I've solved the problem. It seems it was my ignorance.

  I have added a line in Settings MENU->Compiler ITEM->Search directories TAB->Compiler TAB
  "C:\mingw-w64\i686-5.3.0-win32-sjlj-rt_v4-rev0\mingw32\i686-w64-mingw32\include"

  Now codecompletion is suggesting the entire list of .h files under the directory; e.g. when I start typing "#include <" as soon as I type "<" the codecompletion suggests .h files under C:\mingw-w64\i686-5.3.0-win32-sjlj-rt_v4-rev0\mingw32\i686-w64-mingw32\include.

Greetings
Fabix
