Search help

  • Simple searches use one or more words. Separate the words with spaces (cat dog) to search cat,dog or both. Separate the words with plus signs (cat +dog) to search for items that may contain cat but must contain dog.
  • You can further refine your search on the search results page, where you can search by keywords, author, topic. These can be combined with each other. Examples
    • cat dog --matches anything with cat,dog or both
    • cat +dog --searches for cat +dog where dog is a mandatory term
    • cat -dog -- searches for cat excluding any result containing dog
    • [cats] —will restrict your search to results with topic named "cats"
    • [cats] [dogs] —will restrict your search to results with both topics, "cats", and "dogs"

Configure unreal to vs code

0

I'm trying to code using vs code as IDE. However, Unreal engine modules are not being found. alt text

I've looked up c_cpp_properties.json file that describes project's configurations.

 {
     "configurations": [
         {
             "name": "Linux",
             "includePath": [
                 "${workspaceFolder}/**"
             ],
             "defines": [],
             "compilerPath": "/usr/bin/clang",
             "cStandard": "c11",
             "cppStandard": "c++17",
             "intelliSenseMode": "clang-x64"
         }
     ],
     "version": 4
 }

includePath should be variable? My doubt is: is really only that? And what path should I point to to vscode be able to find unreal modules?
My OS is Ubuntu 16.04

Edit: According to timsev7n`s comment, msbuild was missing. I installed it from here, but this issue remains. The question now is: how can I link vccode against msbuild?

Make sure you have c++, c#, vscode-epics and Unreal Engine 4 Snippets from the extensions section in VSCode. Win8SDK might be needed also.

My VSCode works fine beside the fact it has false errors due to some missing headers it can't find or something..and some syntax highlighting is missing (which I am fussy about huehuehue) other than that it compiles and #includes just fine.

EDIT: Thinking about needing Wind8SDK - Do you have VS15 or 17 with the necessary SDK's etc? If not, download visual studio build tools. That will allow you to download all the SDK's you need without downloading VS-Studio.

Epic show what you need here https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-us/Programming/Development/VisualStudioSetup#optionsforanewvisualstudioinstallation

If you do have VS_Studio, open build tools and click the 'modify' button and you will see the same thing.
