Have you tried VS Code in Remote Development mode?
- eloisius 6y agoI’ve only just read about it thanks to your comment, but I’m wondering what advantage it has over just mounting a file system to share between your VM And host OS and just running commands via SSH.
- Matthias247 6y agoI think the plugins run on the VM, and then e.g. a remote C++ plugin is actually aware of the linux environment on the host and can pick up the correct includes/symbols there. Whereas if you have things locally the tooling assumes that you are developing for the local machine. There are obviously some ways to fix that - e.g. by pointing to a remote sysroot and overriding flags - but it's not a very straightforward process.
