Currently, GCC and the GNU C++ standard library are bundled together in nixpkgs. Because of this, the GNU C++ standard library location isn't explicitly passed to GCC, so it doesn't appear in the compile_commands.json.

This should be fixed as a result of NixOS/nixpkgs#132340. In the meantime, everything works as expected using clang based standard environments.

sorry I'm a bit new to this and I apologize if I'm being dumb... but I had this working once or twice and got a generated .json but now when trying to run it I get this error and it blanks out my previous .json file

    self.server_bind()
  File "/nix/store/svjmllfy2w2byp5q53wb8w0j2fr605w3-python3-minimal-3.10.11/lib/python3.10/socketserver.py", line 466, in server_bind
    self.socket.bind(self.server_address)
OSError: [Errno 98] Address already in use```

Since clangd is itself savvy to this variable, putting these in the output results in them being present twice in the eventual compilation inside clangd. (Any other LSP tools should also be aware of these on nix).

Hi,

if i understood the readme correctly mini_compile_commands is used somewhat interactively. a mini_compile_commands server needs to be manually started bevor it works.

This works fine in a shell when manually building the software, but instead of creating the compile_commands "manually" I'd prefer to create it automatically while building a derivation (through a nix build).

i couldn't get mini_compile_commands_server running properly during building a derivation. (I assume running processes just get killed by nix when the building phase switches to the next one).

Is there currently a way to get this working?
