[SOLVED]Single source file no longer has syntax highlighting, code traversal features. [message #848813]

I am running Eclipse Indigo on Centos 5.7 working on a pretty large scale c++ Project. One of my central source files stopped getting any syntax highlighting. I also can no longer right click on an object and see the decleration, and it no longer highlights other occurrences of functions,objects etc... in the file. The file is fairly large (about 8300 lines) and the comments get highlighted, but nothing else

it is in the included resources of the project. I have done the standard close and reopen. reboot the pc etc.

I have to work through this file quite a bit so not having the eclipse features slows me down a bit.

It seems like this isn't limited to one source file, I'm having this issue with any file >8000 lines of code
