Compiler path The compilerPath setting is an important setting in your configuration. The extension uses it to infer the path to the C++ standard library header files. When the extension knows where to find those files, it can provide useful features like smart completions and Go to Definition navigation.

compilerPath (optional) The full path to the compiler you use to build your project, for example /usr/bin/gcc , to enable more accurate IntelliSense. The extension will query the compiler to determine the system include paths and default defines to use for IntelliSense.

How to set compiler path & intellisensemode in visual code?

To answer your question, in the official Visual Code documentation, you can see that the compiler path and intelliSenseMode are set as shown below.
Just make sure to give the right location of g++.exe. "compilerPath":

  • "C:/mingw-w64/x86_64-8.1.0-win32-seh-rt_v6-rev0/mingw64/bin/g++.exe", "intelliSenseMode":"gcc-x64" .

    • What does 'compilerpath' do?

    Putting "compilerPath":

  • "" (empty string) will skip querying a compiler.
    This is useful if a specified compiler doesn't support the arguments that are used for the query, as the extension will default back to any compiler it can find (like Visual C).
    Leaving out the compilerPath property does not skip the query.

    • Why does VSCode need a compilerpath variable?

    Because VSCode isn't a full IDE by itself, it doesn't ship with the compiler it needs to offer the compilation service.
    Therefore, it needs to be pointed in the direction of a valid C++ compiler.
    That is the purpose of the compilerPath variable.
    Testing whether or not the path you provided is correct is easy.
