SGDK & Intellisense (Code::Blocks)

Post by MrTamk1s »

Just a quick, somewhat relevant, but noobish installation question for those who use SGDK with the Code::Blocks IDE. Is there any plugin or way for the Code::Blocks IDE to generate its equivalent of Visual Studio's Intellisense for the SGDK Library? It would make development much more streamlined and easier than having to constantly consult the SGDK Doxygen for functions.

I don't know about the VS Intellisense but at least i know you can have the doxygen documentation parsed so you have sort of javadoc in Code::Blocks based on the doxygen documentation. It's why i designed documentation in doxygen format on include file. Just search for doxygen plugin for Code::Blocks :)

The documentation is not perfectly parsed, but that is already a great improvement over opening the include file each time ;)

Finally got a chance for some major free time (graduating from college with B.S. in Software Engineering, and Holiday Break :D!) and access to Code::Blocks (with a Uni rental laptop extended until Jan 16). Could you explain how to use the Doxygen plugin in Code::Blocks for Intellisense-like code lookup while writing lines of code?

Normally you don't even have to install supplementary plugin, you just need to enable the doxygen documentation parsing in the
Settings --> Editor --> Code completion --> Documentation tab.
Bu for some reason it does not work anymore on my Code:Blocks, it was perfectly working before and i can't remember from where it stopped to work :-/
Too bad as that is a very useful feature :-/
