Oh yes, as sodev said, I just disabled wxUSE_UNSAFE_WXSTRING_CONV. Those STL containers related options have been modified, too, but I don't think they really influence the conversion from wxString to std::string.

Since, IIRC, using STL means wxString is stored as std::string I would say you are technically right but, if the other person is using an STL built wxWidgets and you are not then you could have that as the cause of your problem!

Hi Pecan,

compile_commands.json is read and parsed every time a file is opened. This uses a lot of CPU, especially during the initial parsing of all files, where
 compile_commands.json is read and parsed as many times as the number of files in the project. Attached patch does some optimisation for this.
1. Save the parsed compile_commands.json until the first batch parsing is completed, cleared after that.
2. After initial batch processing, all the filesnames are stored in a vector, and only if the filename is not present in this vector, compile commands is parsed. This helps to avoid parsing of the compile_commands.json after editing and saving of the file.

Thanks, Christo
Here some results from this christo patch.
The first millisecond measure following the filename is the parse time prior to the patch; the second is after applying the patch. There's a significant savings there. And it has a visible effect. It even feels faster.

Looks like I'll be applying the patch.
Thanks Christo.

Hello Developers.

If you are using the gcc from msys2, I mean the compilers in the folder "msys64\mingw64\bin", you should use "mingw-w64-x86_64-clang-tools-extra", which means the clangd.exe is under the folder "msys64\mingw64\bin" (the same folder in your gcc.exe).


If you are using the clang tool chain, I mean you use the compiler from the folder "msys64\clang64\bin", you should use "mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-clang-tools-extra".


I found that I just make a big mistake in one of my PC, that is I use the gcc toolchain from "msys64\mingw64\bin", but I use the clangd.exe from "msys64\clang64\bin", the result is I got a lot of LSP diagnostics messages about the errors.  ;)   Luckily I found the reason, and fix this issue. Hope this will help other guys.  :)

I faced the same issue. But I'm using the build-suite under in the folder "msys64\ucrt64\bin" and thus, I had to install package mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-clang-tools-extra for adding the clangd tool to my compiler-suite.

Maybe it is a good idea to add this in your wiki-page https://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/CB_Clangd_Client in the chapter Windows: Compiler Clangd/LLVM Package Installer

Hi, I think you can edit the wiki by yourself if you have a codeblocks forum account.

Can you try that? Thanks.
If some piece of memory should be reused, turn them to variables (or const variables).
If some piece of operations should be reused, turn them to functions.
If they happened together, then turn them to classes.

OK, I tried and it was possible for me.

However, since I changed a document initially setup by somebody else, I would never do such a change without discussing it before.
Furthermore, it is important for me that somebody takes a look to it and if possible tries out if my extension describes really the correct procedure.

So it would be nice if somebody else will test it and will come back a comment if it works or not.

I understand your concern, and a wiki page is a shared resource, and I'm OK if you add any contribution to that page, especially this section:

7 Windows: Compiler Clangd/LLVM Package Installer

Thanks.

When using code completion plugin , after  whi  typed,  a popup window showed with content  C++ while , and I can just press enter,  while will be printed  in editor.  It works for those keywords too  [for switch ...]But when using Clangd_Client plugin, after whi  typed ,nothing happenI have to type the whole word by myselfSame happened to [for switch ...]
Does Clangd_Client plugin supports this feature? Thx






I've noticed this also. Clangd does not respond to keywords. But you can easily add them to your abbreviations set. Settings/Editor/Abbreviations.
