– CLion 2019.1
– UE 4.22.3
– Visual Studio 2019 (16.1.6)

I was able to generate the CMakeLists.txt but when I select “File | Open CLion” from the UE menu it fails with this messages: “Could not open CLion for project D:/dev/unreal/TL_Proj01/TL_Proj01.sln”.

This does not make sense to me. It looks like UE still wants to open the VS project despite the fact that I changed the editor setting to use CLion (also as the new default). Also, the file TL_Proj01.sln does exist and it works fine with Visual Studio 2019.

The generated CMakeLists.txt is using forward slashes for all paths so I think this should be fine.

Could you please give a hint what might needs to be adjusted?

Thanks!

Question for you – how to you get CLion working as well as other IDEs/languages. ie for me in CLion (or ANY C++ IDE) I always have red squigglies on imports. Pressing the period or -> after an object never shows a list of available options. I get no suggestions for auto imports. ie If I use GetCapsuleComponent, there is no help saying, “Import “Components/CapsuleComponent.h?”

Basically it seems like C++ IDEs are useless? I get the same results in VS and VSCode. Versus C#/.NET or Webstorm and javascript where it imports headers automatically as you need them.

I find that i have to manually type everything with no help. Constantly looking up header names to find out what to import. Any thoughts?
