One 、 To configure

1 Change the background to bean paste green

1.1 stay options Select slice... Under option preferences.

1.2 Select... In the figure 2 Tag options , Click on 3 Tag button .

1.3 Operate in sequence according to the operation sequence in the figure . There are several colors of bean paste green on the Internet , Personally feel windows10 Upper use 85,123,205 The color is softer .

2 Modify the font and its size

2.1 Use key combination “alt + y”, The pop-up interface is as follows , Click the button in the red box .

2.2 I prefer the following configuration ：

2.3 After modification, it needs to be confirmed , Input “yes” that will do .

3 Display code line number

Menu bar “view” Under Options , Click on “line numbers” that will do .

4 How to set the right margin

In view of the requirements of the coding specification , Neat code limits the number of characters in a single line of code .

4.1 Use key combination “alt + y”, The pop-up interface is as follows , Follow the sequence in the figure . I set up 80 The width of the character .

4.2 The renderings are as follows ：

5 How to make the history file display in the form of label bar

5.1 Click on the menu bar “View” Under the “Windows Tabs” Options can be .

6 The coding specification requires that the length of the function should not exceed 50 That's ok

Just like the number of characters in a single line , In order to improve the readability of the code , Sometimes, the total number of lines of code and comments of a single function is limited to 50 That's ok .source insight4.0 This prompt function has been automatically enabled on , When the function exceeds 50 The file window on the left will bold the function name when the line is opened , as follows ：

This function is available by default , To set or cancel , as follows ：

Two 、 problem

1 Stuck when creating a project with a large number of files

Examples of questions ：
Creating linux Kernel source code Engineering , When adding the contents of the entire kernel folder to the project , There will be file loading jam , One click with the mouse will also get stuck and exit , And rebuild the project .

reason ： Too many files to load , After loading, index the calling relationship of each function , A lot of work , Nature needs more time , It is also prone to Caton phenomenon . Of course, it is also related to computer performance .

solve ：
The ultimate solution ：
It's been changed recently i7-10875CPU Notebook , The kernel is loaded in seconds , Join in kernel All the documents will soon , After adding, the global search for a string is also completed in seconds , As smooth as you can , The whole process leads to extreme comfort ！

Method 1 ： Add only the working directory used , You need to know that the files you use are in those folders . This method is generally applicable .

Method 2 ： Add folder , It's inevitable to add some unused files , It's much better to just add files for your own use than method 1 .
So here comes the question , I can probably choose the right folder , But if you choose a file , The difficulty is too high .
Here is a special for linux Kernel and uboot Script for , The role of the script is to find the files used from the source code of your compiled version , And record the file path . Use source insight You can directly use the file generated by the script to add your own files .
The great God helped us write the script , Here is github link , Don't forget to point a star for someone .
Generate_Kernel_Uboot_Project_forIDE

Method 3 ： Just wait ！（ Most personal use ）
For various reasons , I choose to wait , Why “ Darling ” Well ？ At first, when I found Caton, I would click on the software with the mouse , Then it's stuck and dodged .

Later, I found that as long as the hands don't itch , The programmer's computer can still build a complete kernel project .
Here's how to wait ：
When loading kernel files , Due to the large number of files , So when the loading progress bar disappears , In fact, the loading work is not over yet , As shown below .

This is the time Do not click “close” key , But keep waiting , Otherwise the software will get stuck , Can't even continue loading , You can only load it from the beginning , Until a file is displayed in the box below , as follows ：

2 Changes to the mapping disk file cannot be saved

There are generally two reasons for this ,

1. The file of the mapping disk does not have write permission , Do not modify . Use chmod Add permissions .
2. The file belongs to root user , Do not modify （ Use it directly root Except for logged in , But now the new version of linux Basically not like reahat Earlier versions can be used directly root Log on to the ）. You need to use chown To modify the user to which the file belongs as non root Users can .

3 Call the relationship window to constantly transform the index function

Sometimes I want to see the multi-layer calling relationship of a function , However, it is found that the calling relationship serial port will automatically index the function pointed by the mouse , How do I fix the function to be viewed ？

Click on “ Small lock ” Just lock the current window , After locking, you need to select the index function , Click on “ Small lock ” The following icon is used to manually index the upper level call .

4 source insight Comments added on linux It's garbled on the screen .

terms of settlement ： Modify the format of the file

Avoid similar situations in the future ： Use source insight 4 And higher ,3.x Version does not support modification of encoding format .4 Version support is as follows ：

5 The global search cannot find the existing information

Sometimes it is necessary to locate the error code location according to the error information obtained by the code operation , But I didn't find it in the global search , Now check the search criteria ：

6 sign out source insight Window top

Sometimes I find out source insight Window top , As a result, it is not convenient to use other software . Exit the top method ：

1. stay source insight Double click the interface F11 key , See if the topping is cancelled .
2. if 1 It doesn't work , Then restart source insight, Double click F11 key .
