Your development environment is all you need. No additional downloads are required.

Extension Settings

Include if your extension adds any VS Code settings through the contributes.configuration extension point.

For example:

This extension contributes the following settings:

• myExtension.enable: Enable/disable this extension.
• myExtension.thing: Set to blah to do something.

Known Issues

• Only clang compiler commands are supported: The extension only supports clang compiler commands. This is due to the fact that the extension uses clang´s AST to generate the call graph. Other compilers like gcc or msvc do not provide the necessary information in the AST.
• Location exceeds the actual function name: For the detection of the function name, the whole range is used from the beginning of the first character to the closing bracket and not just the function name part. This comes from a limitation of clang´s AST. On the function call foo::add(4, 4) clang will report as location for the function start only the namespace foo.
