C/C++ Settings for Large Codebases 🛠️

For large codebases, it is recommended to configure IntelliSense to only work with the code you are actively working on. This can be achieved by setting the includePath and browse.path to only include the directories relevant to your current work. Additionally, limiting symbols to included headers and disabling error squiggles can help improve performance.

IntelliSense Configuration

To set up IntelliSense properly for large codebases, the following settings are essential:

  • includePath: Specifies the directories to be included for IntelliSense.
  • browse.path: Defines the paths for the symbol database.
  • limitSymbolsToIncludedHeaders: Limits the symbols to only those in the included headers.
  • intelliSenseMode: Sets the IntelliSense mode (e.g., gcc-x64).
  • defines: Preprocessor definitions for IntelliSense.
  • cStandard and cppStandard: Specifies the C and C++ language standards.
