LSP-clangd

C/C++ and Objective-C/C++ support for Sublime's LSP plugin provided through clangd.

Installation

• Install LSP and LSP-clangd from Package Control
• (Optional) Install clangd using your package manager or let this package install clangd for you

Usage

By default, clangd will assume your code is built as clang some_file.cc, and you’ll probably get errors about missing #included files, etc.

For complex projects, clangd needs to know your build flags. This can be done using a compile_commands.json or compile_flags.txt file.

For CMake-based projects a compile_commands.json file can be generated using the -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=1 flag.

cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=1 ..
# compile_commands.json will be written to your build directory.

If your build directory is equivalent to the root of the project or <project_root>/build then clangd will find it. Otherwise, symlink or copy it to the root of your project.

See clangd Project Setup for more information on using compile_commands.json, compile_flags.txt and other build systems.

Configuration

Here are some ways to configure the package and the language server.

• From Preferences > Package Settings > LSP > Servers > LSP-clangd
• From the command palette: Preferences: LSP-clangd Settings

• Project-specific configuration. From the command palette run Project: Edit Project and add your settings in:

  {
   "settings": {
      "LSP": {
         "clangd": {
            "initializationOptions": {
              // Put your settings here eg.
              // "clangd.header-insertion": "iwyu",
            }
         }
      }
   }
  }
