I spent the better part of a day trying to work out how to get VS Code to see library functions in the auto complete feature. Eventually I got it so it could ctrl click to go-to-definition but it still underlined the functions as undefined and auto complete wouldn't show them. I wasn't willing to go any further and waste more of my free time to solve this. I'd never experienced such an unintuitive process.

Had this same experience several times in various projects and in all sorts of IDEs, major pain. If it’s helpful, I recently came across the 10x c++ editor project, which has the best c++ code completion experience I’ve seen by a huge margin. Some rough edges UI wise, but it’s still in beta
