"Preprocessor Include Paths, Macros, etc" missing [message #1833124]

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a project with cmake4eclipse. After hours of trying the project finally compiles from Eclipse. But the indexer doesn't run at all and I get errors for almost every line in the code editor. The project properties window is completely missing the "Preprocessor Include Paths, Macros, etc." page in the tree structure on the left. I guess I need to enable the providers by the cmake4eclipse plugin so that the indexer will know where to look for include files. But why don't I see the relevant page in the project properties?

Attached a copy-paste of my configuration from the about window.

Thanks,

Adding the CMake nature to a project removes the Preprocessor Include Paths, Macros, etc. menu item.
This may or may not be a bug.

AFAIK, the only workaround is to import the project as Existing Code as Makefile Project
then run CMake as a external program.

I haven't tried it but you might be able to change the build command to CMake.
(Project --> Properties --> C/C++ Build)
This could allow menu items like Build Project to work.
