Seems not working for me?

[DexArson]

Hi, I'm new to UE5 engine. I created a cpp class in UE5 editor and turned to VSCode, and I found that VSCode couldn't found any header file in any new created cpp class, but the code can be successfully compiled. So I guess it's a Intellisense issue and found this plugin after a long time of googling. However, after installing it, the intellisense still not working. Is there any step I missed?

here is the code:

here is the output:

And I have regenerated vs project files, reopened vscode, nothing changed.

It could be the compiler it's trying to use.

• Download and Install Visual Studio Build Tools 2019 Note: Microsoft does require you to sign in to download older versions.
• Close VSCode and Generate Visual Studio Project Files
• Open VSCode. The extension should ask you about which compiler you now want to use. The new one or the old one. Choose the Build Tools 2019 compiler.

I tried what you suggested, but it still doesn't work. As I mentioned before, the code itself can compile normally, it's just that intellisense doesn't work properly, so I don't think it's a compiler issue.

[DexArson]

I understand what's going on now. It's all because I was using the clangd extension for intellisense and disabled the original intellisense of c++ extension. For some reason, UE's including path can't be recognized by clangd and the UE Intellisense Fix extension doesn't work with clangd's intellisense. When I disabled clangd's intellisense and switched to the c++ extension, intellisense seems to be working properly.

[DexArson]

Anyway, thank you for making this extension and reply.

[boocs]

Yeah this is for Microsoft's C++ extension.

Funnily enough I'm about to release a clangd extension for Unreal soon. Might be tomorrow or Saturday. It does seem better than Microsoft's extension imo.
