Verbose Log file for Indexer Activity [message #202642]

Is there a way to view the log file for the indexer? or switch it into
verbose mode? I am trying to use CDT on OS X 10.4 (intel) with Qt from
Trolltech and the indexer doesn't seem to like something about my
setup. I have built Qt as Frameworks which means I do NOT have the
traditional "include" directory that has all the Qt sub folders in
them. I have individual "Framework" directories that each contain the
headers. So for example I have:

/Users/Shared/Toolkits/Qt-423/lib/QtCore.framework/Headers
/Users/Shared/Toolkits/Qt-423/lib/QtGui.framework/Headers

I have added each of those directories in the "Paths and Symbols" table
in the project properties but this does not seem to make any difference.

If I rebuild Qt in the traditional unix way which will then produce an
"include" directory with all the Qt subfolders then the indexing seems
to work just fine.

I am using "#include <QMainWindow>" style of includes.

Could anyone offer any suggestions as to how to track down what is going wrong?

Thanks

There are several tracing options available to analyze indexing problems.
Please see the following cdt-dev mailing list thread for more information:

After the fact this is going to seem obvious but I'll state it none-the-less:
Using OS X frameworks and the "#include "QtGui/QDialog" is NOT going to
work with the indexer. If you did "#include "QDialog" instead that may
work. Unfortunately, the uic tool that generates a header file from
your GUI xml file uses the "QtGui/QDialog" style of import statement.

For now I built Qt both as frameworks and as libraries with 2
installations side by side. I use the Frameworks to link against and
the "non framework install" for the indexer. Now the indexer is happy
and code completion seems to better.

This is what I thought all along but I needed the log files to tell me
what was going wrong in order to satisfy myself.

Thanks
