Content Assist for large projects incorrect [message #813707] Mon, 05 March 2012 11:21 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi,

I'm running a large C project (> 30k LOC) in a Linux VM and on Eclipse Indigo. Content Assist gives a list of all variables (possibly in the file?) instead of only the relevant variables of a referenced structure. Is there a way to fix this? Any experienced folk who have worked on large C projects would care to share their wisdom?

I so miss Source Insight!!

Cheers,
Sandip

Hi,
Content Assist gives me the entire list of symbols in the project. Since my project is huge this amounts to hundreds of symbols. I would like to have only those symbols which are in the current file or ideally just the symbols corresponding to the structure in question (like Source Insight).

Do you just hit Ctrl-Space for content assist or do you write some letters first? What happens when you type 
mystruct.
after you inserted the dot? Content assist should show then only the valid struct members.

AFAIK, there is no limit for content assist to the current file only. Otherwise you could not use functions/classes/types etc. that are defined outside of this file!
