Hello,
i have a C++ which uses an arm compiler/linker (no gnu c++) and i use a
custom makefile to build my project. Now i want to use eclipse cdt for
developing.
I have made "Standard C++ Make Project" which uses my makefile, this part
works greatly. But i want C++ Indexing. Ive tried both ctags (with
external ctags installed and added to PATH), the Internal C++ Indexer and
the AST/DOM Indexer.
My Problem is, they take some time to index, but i did not get any code
completion if i use something like "this->". Code Completion is on...
Do i have to do something to make code completion happen, is there any log
to review the indexer actions?
I cant say if ctags is executed succesfully, because it takes only little
time to build the index, but i get no log or ctags file (is there any?).
Whats the magic behind the ast/dom indexer, is it usefull at the moment?
Sorry if some question are answered before, i did not found anything
usefull in the archive.
Bye and Thanks in advance.
Danilo

Which CTags version did you use? You need Exuberant CTags (version 5.5.4
recommended).

Depending on the size of your codebase, indexing with Original/DOM could
take a while - CTags
is the quickest option of the three, but it only gives you
declarations/definitions (no references -> which
means no search for references). Code Completion should work regardless of
indexer settings (doesn't
currently use the indexer.) C Code completion requires the use of the old
parser (Preferences->C/C++ Settings).

Not unless you have a C project, code completion should just work. If it
doesn't send in a bug with your code example.

If you go to the .metadata folder in your workspace and click on the
org.eclipse.cdt.core folder, you'll see a tempsctag file
(if you're running with the CTags indexer) and a bunch of .index files (one
..index file for each project.)

The Dom Indexer just makes use of the new parser which is more correct in
general than the old parser. The DOM Indexer
still has a way to go in terms of performance - take another look in M7. ;)
