I think others have reported problems with indexer in Kepler stemming from heap exhaustion or garbage collector overload. I suspect those are just symptoms of some more fundamental errors which can be seen via the "Error Log" view.

In my case, upgrading to Kepler from Indigo made a modest codebase (~350 .cpp files) completely unindexable even with 3G max heap size and regardless of indexer settings (except for "disable", of course Smile

). Each reindexing run rotates through several error log files filled with two types of exceptions:

java.lang.ClassCastException: org.eclipse.cdt.internal.core.dom.parser.cpp.CPPBasicType cannot be cast to org.eclipse.cdt.core.dom.ast.IBinding

and

java.lang.Exception: Unsafe method call. Instantiation of dependent expressions may not work

There is steady memory consumption throughout the process and increasing max heap size may help it complete without a total "internal error" Eclipse abort, but the resulting index is defective (has many files that "could not be indexed") and the next index update is sure to crash the IDE.

Full stack traces and further details logged as issue 412555
