I've been trying to play around with using Eclipse as my editing
environment for my project here at work. However, the project (as
indicated in the subject) is enormous, and I feel there are other issues
that make importing it painful.
Essentially, every time I try to import it, Eclipse dies due to running
out of memory. I tried upping the memory used by the Java VM in
eclipse.ini but have had no success so far, and I'm starting to bump up
against the physical limitations of the RAM I have installed in my
system.
What may make the problem worse is that we use a wrapper around our
source control system that provides pre-compiled objects of all the
source files whenever we do a checkout. I suspect that Eclipse may be
trying to process these object files as well.
Is there any way to set a filter or something in an Eclipse project
limiting which files to import while still allowing the C indexer, etc.,
to do its job?
Thanks.
