I'm using Sublime Text 2 with SublimeClang. After upgraded to Mavericks / Xcode 5, SublimeClang stopped working. Static analyzer that calls command line clang
still works fine, but the background diagnostic keeps complaining that it can't find iostream
.

I had the same issue. I ended up solving it by re-installing the Xcode command line tools.
I ran this command in my terminal:
xcode-select --install
After that, SublimeClang seemed to work again.

It seems that Apple had updated clang
in Xcode 5, and they have also dismissed the /usr/include
path. For some mysterious reason, the new libclang.dylib
in Xcode 5 does not recognize the default include path; it still tries to search /usr/include
and usr/include/c++
for system header.
After checking with cpp -v
, I've figured out that these include paths shall be included in the argument list when calling clang_parseTranslationUnit
:
-I/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/include/
-I/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/c++/v1
-I/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/clang/5.0/include
-I/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk/usr/include
I can't put those arguments in the the "options" section of SublimeClang.sublime-settings
, since it will be overridden by sublimeclang_options
of each project. So I added these inside the additional_language_options
section.
Now SublimeClang can finally work, not an ideal solution though. Anyone have better solutions ?
