How to index the files which are not under wokspace? [message #770918]

Hello,

Could you please help me with one question related to CDT indexing?

I am searching for an article or any tips how to invoke indexing opration in CDT for the code which is outside of Eclipse workspace.

Is it possible at all?

Is there any CDT API to do that, for example to provide external paths?

Thanks in advance,

Vasily.

Hello Klaus,

No, it is not exactly what I am looking for. I do not want to link the folder. I do not want to "connect" external folder with the project.

I am mostly interested in the programming API. So, I have a plug-in from which I want to run indexing on a C/C++ files which are not under workspace.

I would like to have this http://help.eclipse.org/indigo/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.cdt.doc.user%2Fconcepts%2Fcdt_c_indexer.htm
But for the files which are not under workspace.

For example there is a tab for C/C++ project properties:
Description in help: C/C++ Development User Guide > Reference > C/C++ Properties > C/C++ Project properties > C/C++ General > Paths and Symbols page

Eclipse project properties -> C/C++ General -> Paths and Symbols.

But how to add external paths from my plug-in code?

Thanks,
Vasily.
