Symbols don't show

(1/3) > >>

nji:
I just installed 20.03 (on Win7 Prof. 64).
Build the "hello world" console project.
And noticed that in "Management" pane, FSymbols tab, in the bottom pane no elements are shown.
(At last "main" should show up?)
No matter what kind of "View" I choose.
"Refresh" and "Reparse" don't help.

In existing projects it's the same.

FSymbols is for Fortran symbols. Is your project written in Fortran? If not there is a topic why the C/C++ Symbols browser is disabled.

nji:
Well - thank you.

No I do not in Fortran (never did), I do in C/C++.

Up till now I used C::B v. 16, and there the symbols have been shown.

I searched for the topic you mentioned, and found this one (for CB 17):

If I try to enable "View / Symbol browser" it says "... disabled due to wx3 crashes".
If I try to disable FSymbols (as of no use for me) it leaves it.

So ... what can be done to show the symbols in C/C++?

(note this is currently possible if there isn't someone willing to spend a lot of time to redesign the symbols browser to work well)

nji:
That thread is very complex, with lot of detailed discussion, especially for a non-expert in C::B.

Can you please explain if there are simple steps to make symbol browser work?
Or do I have to compile C::B itself for it?
