Is there a way to disable the red squigglies? [message #930011]

I had problems with the indexer in the past. The latest update has regressed to the point where it cannot find <stdint.h>. In my code this means that I get a supposed compile error on every integer in the system, resulting in THOUSANDS of error messages, affecting EVERY SINGLE SOURCE FILE in my system. Is there a way to shut these helpful reminders off so that I can rely on what the COMPILER thinks of as a syntax error?

Right click your project, properties, c/c++ general, code analysis, launching. There's two checks there, uncheck both of them. You'll need to delete any 'bugs' that have been previously picked up, but this will (should?) stop them reoccurring. This gets rid of some.

Otherwise you could try unchecking some of the options under c/c++ general, Indexer.

Thanks a lot! I had tried turning off the indexer in the workspace preferences before, without result. Your suggestion solved the problem. I look forward to reenabling the feature sometime in the future, when it works.

Thank you
Charles

The ultimate solution in my case is to keep the code analysis and simply open and close the project file(s). That caused the spurious error messages to disappear, apparently working around a code analysis initialization bug. This retains the invaluable auto-complete functions that makes Eclipse so useful.
