Create an IntelliSense client when a completion (and other) IntelliSense requests occur

[sean-mcmanus]

Hi,

We have found one solution which works after opening the CPP file in background using vscode API "vscode.workspace.openTextDocument" and it does trigger "textDocument/didOpen" on the file and then calling the code completion API. The code completion works only after first some edit in the cpp files. for clangd extension it is working without doing any edit of cpp file in the IDE with the same approach. clangd/vscode-clangd#589 . Could you please see if we have some option to achieve the same in C/C++ extension?

Thanks,
Rajesh Kumar.
