vim + Windows10 + YouCompleteMe: `1 col 1| too many errors emitted, stopping now [fatal_too_many_errors]`

[Ubaldo Tiberi]

Hello!

The complete feature appears to work well, but the syntax does not work at all. I am running on a Windows 10 machine and I am working on a .c project. I tried to read around, I installed clang, I tried to install YCM-Generator (fyi: the :YcmGenerateConfig command is not recognized within vim for some reasons).

If it may help (I am newbie):

To install plugins I just I cloned all git repos into ~\.vim\bundle folder. I have created tags with the old ctags - and I love it! I installed clang after I cloned the repos because I didn't know what was that.

If it may help, here is my _vimrc

                   p.join( DIR_OF_THIRD_PARTY, 'python-future', 'src' ) )

  return sys_path

Finally, the project is fairly large with a root and then a number of folders and subfolders with different components with different folder structure depths and many .h and .c files spread around. But yet, the root is common.

Many thanks!

Hi.

Two problems that I see straight away:

1. The debug info wasn't for a C file.
2. The extra conf has nothing to do with C either.

Please read https://github.com/ycm-core/YouCompleteMe/#c-family-semantic-completion
The extra conf you copied is tailored for YCM's needs and was never
meant as a starting point for users. *That* is what the docs are for.
