Include works, namespace could not be resolved [message #854913]

Well I guess I didn't have enough yet. I'm soon going to find another IDE if this doesn't work lol... Anyway

Here's the problem: Everything works. I've included irrlicht.h successfully, the editor doesn't give any error. Then, I try "using namespace irr" which IS included in irrlicht.h (I checked!) but then Eclipse says irr could not be resolved!

Screenshot best describes the problem:

What do?

Can the editor resolve irrlicht.h, i.e. when you select it and press F3 will it open the correct header file?
Did you rebuild your index (right click on project and then Index->Rebuild)?
Where did you add the include path for irrlicht.h?
Do you have your own Makefile or do you let Eclipse generate it?

Before you ask
- search this forum
- see the FAQ http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/FAQ
- google

So I had closed Eclipse and went to do something else and when I opened it to answer your questions, that namespace problem was fixed.

Now to answer your question:
F3 opens the correct header file.
Just rebuilt the index. Didn't change anything.
Included in Project -> Properties -> C/C++ General -> Paths and Symbols. I added C:\irrlicht\include as a folder.
I let Eclipse generate the Makefile.

So everything looks like it's working. Onwards with the tutorial. If something goes wrong, I'll gladly ask here! You've been much helpful!

Edit: Arh, this I can't be sure is a problem with Eclipse but... "undefined reference to `_imp__createDevice' IrrlichtTutorial.cpp"

Edit2: GAWD I fixed it. So I had to put the library path to my Irrlicht lib, and then add "Irrlicht" in libraries. That's what ld expects. 100% working now. Thank you very much.
