Generated bindings not showing up as intellisense suggestions

[Sibz]

I am using the library godot-rust and while everything runs fine, there is no intellisense happening for the (generated) types provided by the package.

This can reproduced by cloning my example repository here:
https://github.com/Sibz/godotrust-bugdemo
This may need LLVM installed in order to compile.

On line 15 I have picked an example method that should hint, but does not.
The description for this struct is here: https://docs.rs/gdnative/0.9.0-preview.0/gdnative/api/rigid_body/struct.RigidBody.html

I have contacted the developer and he is aware of the issue but believes the issue probably lies with rust-analyser - it should be able to pick up the bindings generated but it doesn't.

The code compiles and runs fine.

Try enabling rust-analyzer.cargo.loadOutDirsFromCheck.

Thank you for your reply. I tried the following combinations (because the first didn't work) in my code workspace settings:

"rust.rust-analyzer.cargo.loadOutDirsFromCheck": true
"rust-analyzer.cargo.loadOutDirsFromCheck": true
"rust-analyzer.cargo": {
	"loadOutDirsFromCheck": true
}
"rust.rust-analyzer.cargo": {
	"loadOutDirsFromCheck": true
}

I still didn't couldn't get the intellisense to pop.

Hm, this works for me as intended:

with "rust-analyzer.cargo.loadOutDirsFromCheck": true

with "rust-analyzer.cargo.loadOutDirsFromCheck": false

Couple of hypothesis why this migth be the case:

• perhaps cargo check running from rust-analyzer failed due to some differnece in env variables? It took me a while to convince nixos to biuld the example
• " I tried the following combinations" feels suspicious. There should be completion for VS Code options, if you don't get it, perhaps something is misconfigured.

As I can't repro this locally, closing -- seems to be an env specific issue

Why is rust-analyzer.cargo.loadOutDirsFromCheck not enabled by default? I spent several months in a project with bindgen-generated bindings and became unnecessarily frustrated with RA.

There's a discussion in #6448.
