CLION with Boost

Answered

Have anyone tried CLion with boost ? it's really unusable and it's not a memory issue (496 of 1987M).

Does someone have some tips to tune Clion to work well with large code bases like boost ?

Thank you

Hello.

We are looking for a solution to resolve performance problem related to Boost library. Please follow the ticket https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/CPP-1673 to stay tuned.

As workaround you could update boost headers by changing `#ifndef <BOOST_HEADER_GUARD>` to `#if !defined(<BOOST_HEADER_GUARD>) && !defined(__CLION_IDE__)` to highly speed up the performance. But in this case  completion, refactorings and some other features in code insight will stop working.
