Eclipse does not recognize macros defined in CMake Project [message #1758672]

use STM32CubeMX to generate initial codes and libraries to be used for STM32 microcontrollers. I know that there are some preconfigured
eclipse distrobutions out there, but for some reasons I don't want to use them.

Here I use a CMake script to generate makefile: https://github.com/nixmd/STM32CubeMX_cmake

This script compiles without problem and works nice in QtCreator and Kdevelop and provides autocomplete and lets them recognize every
variable/macro/function inside the project. But when it comes to eclipse, it becomes a mess.

I have tried a lot, but still doesn't work.
I have attached one of these projects here (without any modifications into the generated code). I also have placed CMake scripts inside the
root directory of project without runnig cmake command to generate makefile.

Folks please take a look into this files and help me to figure out what is wrong with it.

Thanks

You might want to investigate using cmake4eclipse https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/cmake4eclipse
And probably should read https://cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:Eclipse_UNIX_Tutorial#CMake_with_Eclipse

With the exception of perhas cmake4eclipse (I've never used it), you generally would use CMake to generate the makefile of a Makefile CDT project.

Note that cmake4eclipse is a third party plugin. It's not clear how to get support for it.
