  • nixpkgs

    Nix Packages collection & NixOS

  • Open a nix shell with a compiler that's provided using https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/build-support/cc-wrapper/cc-wrapper.sh (I think it's the default, I don't remember because I've moved on from C++). Open vscode with a c++ linter plugin (ccls for example). Watch vscode complain about missing paths even though the project compiles. Do strace and see that the flags on actual clang don't match. To make things work you need to patch whatever the editor is using, ccls, or libclang (in case of kdevelop) to use the same paths as that wrapper. It's easy to see how this problem applies in a lot of cases.

  • dolphin

    Dolphin is a GameCube / Wii emulator, allowing you to play games for these two platforms on PC with improvements.

  • Fetch the latest version of dolphin-emu from source, and put the git revision and more inside of a flake.lock file. This is defined in inputs.dolphin-emu, where flake = false; and submodules = true;. It is telling Nix to fetch a git repository from the given URI, which is https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin.git.
