Critical indexing bug -- known issue? [message #151313] Wed, 17 August 2005 00:07 Go to next message

I'm just trying out CDT for the first time and there seems to be a
critical bug in RC3 which causes the index to become invalid whenever it
is built incrementally.

To be more specific choosing "Open Declaration" (F3) works fine on a
clean build with a clean index. However, any time I add a method and
the index is incrementally updated (i.e. the status bar starts from
"C/C++ Indexer 50%") then after the rebuild F3 generates "No declaration
found" (on the same files and on all methods).

Forcing a manual reindexing (which I do through Project | Properties and
turning indexing off and then back on) always fixes the problem so it's
clear where the bug is.

This is running Eclipse 3.1, CDT RC3 on Windows XP.

For us this is a complete show-stopper for adopting CDT as intelligent
navigation is a key feature, so I'd like to know if this is a known
problem with the RC3 build or if I need to log a more detailed bug report.

Thanks,

Doug

It would be most helpful if you can raise a bug report at
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/ and include the necessary instructions with
example code that can be used to reproduce the bug.

This might be hard to do if you are performing F3 in the middle of an index
and the example requires a large code base to reproduce.

Has anyone else seen this behavior before?

I've just installed the final release CDT 3.0 and so far I've not seen
the problem reproduce itself.

I'm not going to declare this completely solved until I've written a bit
more code (and run some more incremental index rebuilds) but the signs
are hopeful.

Unfortunately, this problem is still there. It seems to be less
frequent in the final release version but it continues to occur.

I'll submit a bug on it although creating repro steps may be hard.
