Question

Now, I’m using ede to manage my cpp project, and I try to find a file in my project quickly, but I failed. I used ede-find-file to find “db.h”, it sits in “d:/projects/leveldb/include/db.h”, unfortunately, it said cannot find.

My config is put below

(setq leveldb_root "d:/projects/leveldb/")

(ede-cpp-root-project
  "leveldb"
  :file (concat leveldb_root ".gitignore")
  :system-include-path '("C:/Program Files/Microsoft SDKs/Windows/v7.1/Include"
                       "C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0/VC/include")
  :include-path '("/"
                "/include"))

And, is there any suggestion for project management and file find solution? (I also tried find-file-in-project).

I use ede because I need the ede-cpp-root-project to automatically set semanticdb.

Have a look at projectile. Projectile is a project interaction library for Emacs. Its goal is to provide a nice set of features operating on a project level without introducing external dependencies. For instance – finding project files is done in pure elisp without the use of GNU find.

This library provides easy project management and navigation. The concept of a project is pretty basic – just a folder containing special file. Currently git, mercurial and bazaar repos are considered projects by default. If you want to mark a folder manually as a project just create an empty .projectile file in it.
