I have successfully installed the YouCompleteMe plugin for vim and it is already working, however, I cannot get it to work on an actual project. For some reason I cannot create a .ycm_extra_conf.py
that actually works.
To test it out I tried making a minimal project, i.e. I created
~/project
with the following structure:
~/project
~/project/.ycm_extra_conf.py
~/project/code
~/project/code/example.cpp
~/project/include
~/project/include/example.hpp
Nothing fancy. When I edit example.cpp
I try to #include "example.hpp"
but it already fails there because ycm says it cannot find the file ('example.hpp' file not found [pp_file_not_found]
).
vim does find the .ycm_extra_conf.py
file and it tries to load it, however, I am not sure whether it's working correctly.
The output from :YcmDebugInfo
is:

My .ycm_extra_config.py
looks like this:
import os
import ycm_core
flags = [
'-Wall',
'-O3',
'-I../include',
'-I./include',
]
def FlagsForFile(filename, ** kwargs):
return
{

CodePudding user response:
I found the answer. Basically my .ycm_extra_conf.py
was borked.
This one should work:
import os
flags = [
'-Wall',
'-O3',
'-I../include',
'-I./include',
]
def DirectoryOfThisScript():
return os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
def Settings(** kwargs):
return {
'flags': flags,
'include_paths_relative_to_dir': DirectoryOfThisScript()
}
Basically the culprit was
return
{
instead of
return {
The latter one works, the former doesn't.
CodePudding user response:
In most cases, for most projects, we recommend:
- Using clangd
- Creating a compilation database
- NOT using a
.ycm_extra_conf.py
file at all.
This gives the best overall experience, including full-project analysis from clangd.
