(cdt8.1 + cygwin)Invalid project path: Include path not found (\cygdrive\f\.....) [message #812600] Sun, 04 March 2012 02:46 Go to next message

Seems this is an old problem.

I created a C++ executable project with toolchain "Cygwin GCC".

Then in the Project Properties, C/C++ Build / Settings, Cygwin C++ Compiler / Includes, I added a new include path "/cygdrive/f/xxxx/include".

The project was build successfully, and the indexer works fine, too. I think CDT knows that "/cygdrive/f/" is "F:\" very well.

But the IDE gives out a waring "Invalid project path: Include path not found (\cygdrive\f\xxxx\include).", and in the Project Explorer, the "\cygdrive\f\xxxx\include" entry under "Includes" are gray and not-expandable.


not a very big problem, just curious, is that a problem of my settings or a bug of CDT?

It's one of those bugs which came with the worst eclipse version ever: Indigo. My proposal is to go back to CDT 7 which means: use Helios.

More detail:
Include paths are detected by Eclipse itself. The user can not change these includes except if you delete the *.sc files in your workspace. Maybe this could help:

<EDIT> I am unable to post links because I have not reached 25 board messages. It is very easy to circumvent such policy. Which idiot implements such scoring algorithms instead of fixing one of those uncountable Eclipse CDT bugs?</EDIT>.

BTW: The Indigo release is a horrible mess. I detected a lot Show Stoppers and not even one is fixed in the latest SR2. One example which heads in the same direction is
