Can't get "Code Analysis Mode" to work with ESP-IDF about vscode-cpptools HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi @Tomblarom . The C/C++ extension provides a UI wrapper around clang-tidy. It does not provide code analysis directly. Unfortunately, implies its support may be limited to code that can be successfully processed by LLVM/clang.

You might consider following up with an issue against LLVM, requesting support for code intended for other compilers. Or we could perhaps make your issue a 'feature request' to replace use of clang-tidy with something that would also support additional compiler dialects.

I got the hint to link the GNU toolchain. I did it by setting this in my settings.json:

"C_Cpp.codeAnalysis.clangTidy.args": ["--gcc-toolchain=\"C:\\Users\\X390\\.espressif\\tools\\riscv32-esp-elf\\esp-13.2.0_20230928\\riscv32-esp-elf\\bin\\riscv32-esp-elf-gcc.exe\""]
