Title: Right Click -- Open #include file results in 'Not found: <>' for many headers
Post by: nore on April 24, 2023, 03:23:11 am: Hi there,

I have been using codeblocks for about three months now and have been progressing quickly within the IDE. I have had little issues compiling and enjoy the IDE very much. However, during some experimentation today with wxWidgets I decided to go digging in some header files including <chrono> and <memory>, but the compiler quickly reported to me that these header files were not found. Now, this issue came up as rather strange to me because I have had no issues compiling programs with these header files over the past weeks; and I knew that codeblocks for whichever reason did not open these header files -- I figured more of the settings needed information. Anyway, I am using an external installation of MinGW and have tried pointing to the various folders at 'C:\mingw64\x86_64-w64-mingw32\include' but the IDE still cannot find the header files. I am in particular need of these files at the moment, and so help would be very much appreciated.

C:\mingw64\include\c++\13.1.0

Try setting your search directories to C:\mingw64\include or your toolchain executables to C:\mingw64

Maybe the reason you were able to compile is because gcc comes with builtin paths relative to the executable.

These answers fixed the issue quite simply. I can now browse header files with ease. On a side note: what is the "bits" folder?
