code indexer in espressif-ide

Postby jan8051 » Sun Feb 09, 2025 11:07 pm

Hello
I am new to esp32 and just started with installing lastest espressif-ide V3.2.0 . I can compile program and debug the example projects.
One thing I don't know how and bothers me how to enable and use the indexer. In the menu i don't see an option go to definition or simulator. Also the option refactor rename option is greyed out.
Is there some documentation about this.
Thanks Jan

Hello,

Indexing works out of the box, and you don’t need to do anything specific as a user. As soon as the project is built, indexing will be triggered, and headers will be resolved.

For “Go to Definition,” you can try Ctrl + Click to navigate to the definition.

Here are some helpful resources:
https://developer.espressif.com/blog/es ... eclaration
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... ght=clangd

I believe these resources will help you better understand the editor’s capabilities.
