Hi, everyone. I am trying to use visual studio 2017 linux dev workloads to compile and debug tutorial step1 remotely on docker container. I want to use intellisense of vs to help me. But I cannot figure out how.
Here is my steps: 1. I followed (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/linux/download-install-and-setup-the-linux-development-workload) to install and configured visual studio 2017 CE 2. I installed docker engine on windows using virtualbox and boot2docker. And I recreated the docker machine to use more cpus. # stop`default` docker machine docker-machine stop default # delet`default` docker machine，and all images docker-machine rm default # create `default` docker machine docker-machine create -d virtualbox --virtualbox-cpu-count=4 --virtualbox-memory=4096 --virtualbox-disk-size=50000 default # Restart docker docker-machine stop exit 3. create a docker container: docker run --name dealii_vs -w /home/dealii -i -t -d -v /c/Users/cheng:/home/dealii/shared -p 192.168.99.100:8022:22 -p 192.168.99.100:8023-8025:8023-8025 --cap-add=SYS_PTRACE dealii/dealii:latest # --cap-add=SYS_PTRACE is necessary for gdbserver. docker exec -u root -it dealii_vs bash # use root to do something inside 4. configure inside of the docker container apt-get update apt-get install openssh-server gdb gdbserver zip vim-nox -y # download some software, vim-nox is not necessary. # newer cmake, vs2017 need cmake 3.8+ wget https://cmake.org/files/v3.12/cmake-3.12.0-Linux-x86_64.sh # install to /opt/cmake/3.12.0 mkdir -p /opt/cmake/3.12.0 ./cmake-3.12.0-Linux-x86_64.sh --skip-license --prefix=/opt/cmake/3.12.0 --exclude-subdir # modify sshd to auto load some env_vars. # vs 2017 is using ssh to run commands remotely in `non-interactive` shell, which won't load `~/.bashrc` or docker's `ENV` # however, opensshd has an option to load some env_vars even in `non-interactive` shell cat >>/etc/ssh/sshd_config <<EOF # add by Di Cheng PermitUserEnvironment yes EOF # add environment variable, almost identical to output of `docker exec dealii_vs env` mkdir -p /home/dealii/.ssh touch /home/dealii/.ssh/environment cat >/home/dealii/.ssh/environment <<EOF LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_US:en LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 HOME=/home/dealii USER=dealii CC=mpicc CXX=mpicxx FC=mpif90 FF=mpif77 ARPACK_DIR=/home/dealii/libs/arpack-ng-master HDF5_DIR=/home/dealii/libs/hdf5-1.8.15-patch1 OPENCASCADE_DIR=/home/dealii/libs/oce-OCE-0.17 P4EST_DIR=/home/dealii/libs/p4est-2.0 METIS_DIR=/home/dealii/libs/parmetis-4.0.3 PARMETIS_DIR=/home/dealii/libs/parmetis-4.0.3 PETSC_DIR=/home/dealii/libs/petsc-3.6.4 SLEPC_DIR=/home/dealii/libs/slepc-3.6.0 SUPERLU_DIR=/home/dealii/libs/superlu_dist_5.1.2 TRILINOS_DIR=/home/dealii/libs/trilinos-release-12-10-1 DEAL_II_DIR=/home/dealii/dealii-master PATH=/opt/cmake/3.12.0/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin EOF # cat /home/dealii/.ssh/environment echo "dealii:dealii" | chpasswd # modify password apt-get clean # clean for docker commit service ssh start #start sshd exit # return to windows 5. I tried to use cmake plugins of vs2017. It works. I can compile and debug step by step. But a lot of modification to the VSC-like json configuration files is needed. But I do not like cmake very much because it hides a lot of things. { # sample CMakeSettings.json "name": "Linux-Debug", "generator": "Unix Makefiles", # use first one in Tools>Options>CrossPlatform>ConnectionManager by default.

I tried to figure out what header and libs dealii tutorial code is using, however, OMG: $ make VERBOSE=1 /usr/bin/cmake -H/home/dealii/shared/dealII/examples/step-1
