ESP32 Forum

I'm messing with an ESP32 example
It compiles, flashes and runs fine
But in main.c, VS code underlines in RED all the include files and when hovered over: "Can't open source file"

While ESP-IDF compiles and apparently knows the path, VS code does not.
How do you fix this, so that I can hyperlink to these files from within main.c

Sometimes, CTRL+left-click on the include name does make VSCode search for and find the right file.
Another thing to try: F1, "> C/C++: Change Configuration Provider..." -> CMake Tools

Under "Change Configuration Provider", there is only one item listed: (None)

Then you may want to install the cmake extension and check again.

" install the cmake extension" ?

Do you mean the "Microsoft C/C++ Extension Pack"?

I already have the "Microsoft C/C++ Visual Studio Code", installed

I also see the "CMake Extension Pack" by mischelebuha, and "CMake Tools" by Microsoft.

Not clear which you mean

Did you try creating a new project and see if everything works ok first ?

The issue is directly related to the Microsoft C/C++ Intellisense extension.
There needs to be a c_cpp_properties.json file in the vscode folder.
Details here:

I manually created the file and inserted the file structure detailed at the link above, and hyperlinking to include files all work now.
