so I'm a developer working mostly with c using yocto/openembedded for developing our products. I'm trying to set up my nvim with coc-cland as an IDE, but having some problems.
So what I want is to give languageserver the compile_commands.json file. I have the setup working when the compile_commands.json is in the "root of the src dir" but the compile_commands.json is normally not generated in the source folder instead it is generated to <root of src dir>/oe-workdir/<project name>/compile_commands.json. How do I tell coc to use that file if it exists? Finding the file is easy using shell script, but what variable shall I set and where?
My :CocConfig looks like:
{
"languageserver": {
"coc-clangd": {
"command": "clangd",
"rootPatterns": [ ".git/", "compile_flags.txt", "compile_commands.json"],
"filetypes": ["c", "cc", "cpp", "c++", "objc", "objcpp"]
}
}
}
I have found some relevant git for coc-clangd (https://github.com/clangd/coc-clangd) where it states that I can set the clangd.arguments but I need to do it dynamically as the <project name> folder changes name from project to project, can I do it in the :CocConfig or can I do it in my vimrc/init.vim?
