We are working on c++11 support. > However it fails to offer completions for things like std::shared_ptr or > std::unordered_map even though the headers are included and the code > compiles.

I did not look into this specific one, but it might be because of c++11: if a parse error occurs, an attempt at error correction is done by skipping input until something that looks like a declaration/definition, and continue there. This might have the effect of skipping too much. > Visual Studio (or rather VA Assist as Visual Studio's C++ 'intellisence' > is rubbish) has a list of editable paths and a database from which it > gathers all the symbols but I couldn't see anything like that in > Creator. How is it building these completions? I'm not sure what editable paths are.. Anyway, completion is done on-demand. No database is stored to disk. The (very) short explanation is: the scope on cursor position is retrieved, and all visible declarations/definitions/etc are added (also for the parent scope(s), imported scopes (using namespace), template instantiations, typedef resolving, etc). -- Erik _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
