  • [SOLVED] Code Completion is not working

    Hello,
    Although indexer has finished the code completion as typing feature is not working. Some rare times It works but it takes about 20'' or more. Of course under this circumstances it is simply a worthless feature. This makes the IDE improductive when using it to develop an application on a framework with tens of source and header files, like the Nordic's for instance.
    I cannot believe that this feature is not working at all, so is there a way to resolve this issue? Maybe a clean installation?

    Thanks in advance,
    Stavros Makridis.

  • Hello Stavros,

    Thank you for your inquiry.
    Could you check if the indexing process is completed?
    You can see the progress e.g. in the Source Navigator window.

    After the indexing is done indexer related features should work near instant as usual.

    Best regards,
    Nino

  • Hi Stavros,

    Could you provide a little example project which shows the reported behaviour so we can try to reproduce the issue?

  • Hello

    I have the same problem, code completion does not work, it shows what could be the complete eg. function, but once selected, pressed even with a mouse pointer it does not complete... btw what keystroke should be used, usually , space bar works...

    Looking forward to the solution!

    BEST.

  • Hello,

    Such an issue is not know to us.
    Could you provide an example project?
    Generally code completion is triggered automatically.
    You can trigger it manually with Ctrl + J.

    Attached you can see auto completion in action.
    As you can see it works for the included header files, variables and functions.

    The only prerequisite is that the indexer must be finished with indexing the application.

    So currently we assume it is rather a project setup issue than a bug in Embedded Studio.
    If you can provide a reproducer where the issue is reproducible with we will gladly take a look.

    Best regards,
    Nino
