not seeing errors on editor

[emaayan]

using vs code extension 1.6.3 with idf 5.0.1
i have one project which doesn't show errors

no_errors.png (210.53 KiB) Viewed 4040 times

and another project which shows them , i've compared both settings and they are identical, not sure what's going on here

This looks like a settings issue. Please make sure your compiler path and IntelliSense mode are set correctly in .vscode/c_cpp_properties.json

If they are indeed the same, maybe try to refresh your IntelliSense from VsCode Command Palette with "C/C++: Reset IntelliSense Database" or try to rebuild the project it my refresh any stale metadata which my be causing the issue.

hi.. so this IS a settings issues, some of it has been discussed here https://github.com/espressif/vscode-esp ... issues/672
and here https://github.com/espressif/vscode-esp ... issues/748
there are few problems with new project created with esp-idf, one is that it uses always uses a bad problem matcher in the buiild

task "^[^\\.](.*):(\\d+):(\\d+):\\s+(warning|error):\\s+(.*)$"
