printf is ambiguous messages on indigo/CDT 8 [message #723464]

Hi Folks,

Relatively new to CDT. I'm getting these annoying messages about printf and fscanf. Everything still builds and works, but this is just a 40 line test program, so, I'm trying to head off bigger issues in the future.

Installation details:
Mac OSX (Leopard)
I have eclipse Indigo and installed CDT it by downloading the cdt-master.tgz, uncompressing, and copying the plugins dir from that tgz into the eclipse plugins dir. I did this because I when I used the update URL, it never actually showed the CDT main plugin, I just got stuff about CDT/autotools and CDT/Visual C++ (which I did install)

I was originally getting errors about unresolved includes, but I then rebuilt the index and pointed the project to /usr/includes and that cleared up. But now this.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Tom

Any ideas with this? Anyone able to use CDT 8.0 with Indigo? I go to add the update site and it tells me that it's a duplicate, yet when I search for cdt, I don't see the actual CDT package, just the two I mentioned earlier.

That's probably a warning from the Eclipse code analysis (Codan). Can you post the offending lines?

It's a bad idea just to unzip into the plugins dir. You should follow the official installation instructions.
