Intellisense not workingsz

[trampas]

I am using nRF Connect for VS Code V2024.7.13 and the intellisense does not work.

Hi,

Does it work for any other files?

No it does not work for any files.   I have read that the intellisense is linked to the compile_commands.json however I can not find this file in my project after building.  

As fast as things change at Nordic/Zephyr it might be that the compile_commands.json is no longer used or available.

No that does not work.

 

Additionally the intellisense does not work on the main project.  I also have branch without mcuboot and intellisense does not work on that project either.   

I assume I must have changed something or did something that broke it.  So I am more interested in knowing how nRF Connect for VSCode makes the intellisense work. 

I did add this to CMakeLists.txt and now I get the compile_commands.json but still no intellisense. 

set(CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS ON)

Do you use sysbuild?

[trampas]

No but I assume if I click the button it will?  What is the difference between default and sysbuild?

It is pretty much a rework of our build system for multi-image builds (such as using MCUboot).

https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-latest/page/zephyr/build/sysbuild/index.html

Try to build both with and without and see if it impacts the issue.

Also: Which version of the SDK do you use?
