IntelliSense doesn't seem to be working with SSHFS filesystem type in Windows 10 (no import errors detected and no squiggly lines). I know this is a fringe case, but I'm wondering if there is an easy fix.

IntelliSense works fine for this example in the local filesystem as well as on an exfat formatted flash drive.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install winsshfs and mount a remote file system
2. Open the a project locally from that mounted file system

Reproduces without extensions: No (Need the C++ extension for intellisense)

According to #735, it looks like sshfs mounts that are too large will fail to be searched. You could try using a smaller mount and see if that works

[jordangarside]

Gotcha, thanks a lot @jophippe
I should have searched for that first, my bad.

@jordangarside #735 was with Mac and the file APIs are different. Did using a smaller mount fix the issue?

[jordangarside]

I'm going to try a smaller mount today @sean-mcmanus . I'll post here with the results.

[jordangarside]

@sean-mcmanus Just tried a 50GB mount and still had the same issue. Strangely, it looks like IntelliSense is still loading because I get the Configure includePath for better IntelliSense results. message (this happens for both mount sizes), but it doesn't detect the import errors.

There are also no problems reported in the console.

Which winsshfs are you using? This one: https://storage.googleapis.com/google-code-archive-downloads/v2/code.google.com/win-sshfs/win-sshfs-0.0.1.5-setup.exe ?

@sean-mcmanus https://github.com/Foreveryone-cz/win-sshfs/releases/tag/1.6.1

https://github.com/Foreveryone-cz/win-sshfs/releases/download/1.6.1/WinSSHFS-1.6.1.13-devel.msi doesn't install on any of my machines. Gives a couple errors: 2503, 2502. Are you using something else to install it?

[jordangarside]

I'm using that MSI to install.

I think you also need to have Dokany installed before running the MSI.

[sean-mcmanus]

Yeah, I have 1.0.5.1000 of Dokan: https://github.com/dokan-dev/dokany/releases/download/1.0.5/DokanSetup-1.0.5.1000.exe .
