You must add the Qt include path for the indexer.
Project Properties > C/C++ ->Include Paths and Symbols

Thanks Axel but I already do that and nothing happens...

I go to Project Properties > C/C++ ->Include Paths and Symbols and add

/Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Headers
/Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Headers

Any clue??

* Did you try to re-index your project (select your project->context menu->index->rebuild)?
* Do you have unresolved includes(select your project->context menu->index->Search for Unresolved Includes)?

Did you add the include paths to C++ language or only C?

thanks Yevgeny.....

I did what U say when, I rebuild nothing happens, and the code completion is nule but when I search for unresolved includes the search throw this:

/Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4/Headers

qapplication.h
Unresolved inclusion: QtCore/qcoreapplication.h
Unresolved inclusion: QtCore/qpoint.h
Unresolved inclusion: QtCore/qsize.h
Unresolved inclusion: QtGui/qcursor.h
Unresolved inclusion: QtGui/qwindowdefs.h

qboxlayout.h
Unresolved inclusion: QtGui/qlayout.h

qslider.h
Unresolved inclusion: QtGui/qabstractslider.h

qspinbox.h
Unresolved inclusion: QtGui/qabstractspinbox.h


and my code is this:

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// //////////
#include<QApplication>
#include<QHBoxLayout>
#include<QSlider>
#include<QSpinBox>


int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
QApplication app(argc, argv);
QWidget* ventana=new QWidget;
ventana->setWindowTitle("Ejemplo Basico 1");
QSpinBox* spinBox=new QSpinBox;
QSlider* slider=new QSlider(Qt::Horizontal);
spinBox->setRange(0,130);

slider->setRange(0,130);

QObject::connect(spinBox, SIGNAL(valueChanged(int)), slider, SLOT(setValue(int)));

QObject::connect(slider, SIGNAL(valueChanged(int)), spinBox, SLOT(setValue(int)));

spinBox->setValue(35);

QHBoxLayout* layout=new QHBoxLayout;
layout->addWidget(spinBox);
layout->addWidget(slider);

ventana->setLayout(layout);
ventana->show();
return app.exec();

}

thank You again

But you added 
/Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Headers


Where are the actual header files? Are they in subdirectories? Then you have to include them as well.

So here is the problem. Qt uses the include form like the following:

#include <QtGui/QButton>

which means the compiler is looking for that exact path somewhere in all
the -I flags. The issue is with the frameworks that Qt produces. Taking the
example include from above and the paths we have the following:

/Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4/Headers/QButt on
/Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Headers/QButton

Which does NOT match any of the Include paths that CDT is looking at. Now
GCC understands that when you have the -FQtGui.framework that include paths
such as

#include <QtGui/QButton> are really of the form
/Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Headers/QButton and thus your code
compiles.

There are 2 ways to fix this issue. One the user can fix then other the CDT
devs can fix.

User: Recompile Qt yourself and install it into your favorite location. The
compilation will generate Frameworks BUT it will also create the traditional
UNIX style directory setup with $QTDIR/include/QtGui which will have the
QButton header file. This will allow CDT to correctly parse the headers and
give you code completion for Qt projects assuming your project has the
-I$QTDR/include as part of its invocation. I use this approach every day for
the last 3 years or so and it works just fine.

CDT: Patch the scanner discovery parser code to understand -F and OS X
Frameworks and make all of the above "just work". Since OS X compatibility
has usually been fairly low on the priority list for CDT devs I always opt
for fix #1.

Hope this all helps.

There is some ongoing work for CDT 8.0
http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/ScannerDiscovery61/Stories
I think this is a good chance to get your request fixed. You should open a new bugzilla request.

There is already open bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=69529. It is pretty clear what needs to be done in code (to me anyway) but it'll take a contributor working on Mac willing to make a patch.

Mr. MauPaz
I use Scientific Linux 6, and I have the same problem...
And I can't fix it...

Can you tell me what you have done, Sir?

Your help will be so meaningful for me... ^_^
