Problem with QTCreator 13 and Clangd

[bernadsz]

I have installed Qt Creator [13.0.0 Based on Qt 6.4.2 (GCC 13.2.0, x86_64)] on Ubuntu 24 from apt install qtcreator.

Now the first problem is, clangd could not index my project properly. After trying many things, I gave up and used Bear to create a compile_commands.json from my bear -- make, and replaced the one inside .qtc_clangd/ so that at least I get all the highlights and etc correctly.

There are still two main problems:

1. Every time I restart the QTCreator, the old compile_commands.json is restored and I have to copy the new one again. Is there any way to avoid this?
2. If I now right-click on Find References to Symbol Under Cursor it only finds whatever is on the same folder, but doesn't look globally. It is probably related to 1 of course.

It would be very nice to get some help! :)
