A Vim plugin that uses libclang to provide accurate semantic code completion for C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++. It also highlights compile errors and supports per-project compiler flags via a .clang_complete file.
Use cases
- autocomplete C++ code in Vim
- clang-based completion without ctags
- show compile errors while editing C in Vim
- configure per-project compiler flags for completion
- complete Objective-C code in Vim
When to choose
- You use Vim (not an LSP setup) and want clang-accurate C/C++ completion
- You want error highlighting and quickfix integration from the editor
- You need per-project include/define flags via .clang_complete files
When to avoid
- You use Neovim or a modern LSP client - clangd is generally better supported
- You need a license-clear dependency (the repo has no explicit license)
- You work mainly in languages other than C/C++/Objective-C
