Indexer reports "No declaration was found" [message #162273]

Hi

I have created a new Eclipse project onto a set of existing files. I want
to use Eclipse to analyse these existing source files and therefore want
to use the Indexer.

I have selected "Full C/C++ Indexer" in CDT Preferences, and when I open
the project I see the Indexer progressively indexing the files. However,
when I use F3 / CTRL F3 on a function definition I see "No declaration was
found" in the bottom status bar and the editor does not jump to the
declaration/definition (which is in another file in the project).

I am running CDT 3.0.0 on Windows XP under Java 1.5. I have seen the
indexer functionality work correctly on other projects.

This project is outside of my workspace as it was an existing folder. Is
this an issue?

Any suggestions why indexing is not working for me in this project?

seems to be a similar problem to what I have. (post of 22.1.06)
In my case it did not index portions of the system path (c++ headers)
If I put all the c++ system headers under the project directory it works
(provided
the include path is correct). Normally it detects the include path
automatically
(standard make project) if not you have to do it manually. If you get
warnings in the
"Problems" pane it is an indication that something with the include path
is wrong.
