If you're saying Vim's working directory is /home/user/code_path, and
you magically expect Vim to understand ./file1.c really means ./
path_dir1/path_dir2/file1.c, then you're out of luck. The file you
parse with quickfix commands needs to give the full absolute path, or
the exact relative path relative to the current working directory of
Vim, for Vim to find the files.

Somebody suggested ":compiler gcc", which doesn't just mean "you
can :make from within Vim" but also means "set up my errorformat to
match gcc output". I'd suggest using that rather than re-implementing
a gcc errorformat, unless your gcc differs from the norm
significantly.

Opening a new tab is completely different from errorformat. Adding the
text "newtab" to the 'switchbuf' option might do this for you.
