Hello,
I want to use eclipse CDT as the editor for work on Linux kernel.
I don't want to use eclipse debugger for kernel work. I even think
of building from command line. But it is important to me to use features
like text completion.

The thing is this: for such features as text completion, I need the
indexer. Running the indexer on all Linux kernel is quite expensive
in terms of time. It is also heavy in terms of memory.
I want to tell the indexer to work (in the first phase, when it prepares
its DB, and later on, during work) on only part of the tree,
like arch/arm, and some more folders.
Is it possible ?

rgs,
Kevin

Hi,

If I understand your question correctly, you have a C++ project with lots of files and you want indexer to index only sub set of these files. It is possible Smile

Each directory or file that you want to remove from index operation: choose resource -> right click in Project Explorer -> Resource Configurations -> Exclude from Build.

Thanks,
Yevgeny
