I assume the same things as the rest of us, perhaps:

* Lack of auto-completion for connect().
* Very slow auto-completion.
* Generally auto-completion sometimes work, sometimes doesn't.
* "Find uses" doesn't work, so you have to grep to find uses.
* It gets very confused with smart pointers and templates in general.
* Sometimes doesn't highlight local uses.

This is the clang code model, and these things are a major PITA.

The Creator code model was excellent for C++98. The last few months, I 
complete switched my projects to C++14, and that code model is now 
useless, so clang is the only choice. And it's not very pleasant to work 
with. In fact, I'd say it's very unpleasant.
