# LSP-clangd
C++ support for Sublime's LSP plugin provided through 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
- Install clangd using your package manager or let this plugin install clangd for you

- Install [LSP](https://packagecontrol.io/packages/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.
By default, clangd will assume your code is built as `clang some_file.cc`, and you’ll probably get errors about missing `#include`d 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 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.

```bash
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=1 ..
# compile_commands.json will be written to your build directory.
```
If your build directory is $SRC or $SRC/build, clangd will find it. Otherwise, symlink or copy it to $SRC, the root of your source tree.

See [clangd website](https://clangd.llvm.org/installation#project-setup) for instructions using other build systems.
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](https://clangd.llvm.org/installation#project-setup) for more information on using `compile_commands.json`, `compile_flags.txt` and other build systems.
