CCS/CC3200: CCS7: No Indexer (and no C/C++ menu in Preferences dialog)

Part Number: CC3200


Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

currently I'm using Code Composer 7.2 for SimpleLink CC3200 devices (TI v16.9.3.LTS Compiler). As it seems, there is no indexer available. Furthermore, as it seems, the whole "C/C++" section in the Window->Preferences dialog is missing - this is the part of the menu where the indexer should be referenced, like it also was on every other Eclipse-based IDE I have used so far. ;)

I also tried the search field in the Preferences dialog but the word "indexer" brings up nothing.

Apart from that, the IDE seems to work. Project compile, debugging debugs, etc.

Did I miss something? Did I do something wrong on installation? I need indexing for productive use of the IDE. Could anyone tell me how to get it?

Greetings

    In CCS, the C/C++ section is hidden by default. To expose it, select the option in the lower left hand corner ("Show advanced settings")

    Once you do that, the options will be available:

    The indexer should be enabled by default. If it is and you are still having issues, does none of the features work (auto-complete, jump to declaration/definition, etc)? Did you try cleaning and rebuilding the index cache?


    Thanks

  • Thank you very much, I didn't know that.
    The Indexer was working already, only it does not resolve every kind of links. This seems to depend on how the files were included into the project.
  • Is your issue with source files linked to the project or header files found via include search path?
