How to turn off Outline in CDT 2.0 [message #109886]

Does anybody knows how to turn off the Outline in CDT 2.0 (win32).
I have quite a few classes in one of mine files and after changing even a
some
tiny bit of the comment the Outline starts updating and uses up almost all
CPU
resources (Pentium IV 2.4 HT). The worst thing is that this not only stops
other applications from running but it blocks copying to clipboard (Ctrl+C)
which is really annoying. Fast view option only hids it but does not turn it
off.

Other than just closing the outline view, if you are using a standard make
project, you can go to project->properties->C/C++ Project Paths and edit the
Exclusion filter on the source folder to remove your particular file.
That file will then be considered to be outside your scope of interest and
won't be indexed anymore and won't be displayed in the outline view.

The source folders were meant as a way to focus on a subset of a large
project so that you can work with it without experiencing the performance
problems associated with large projects.

Thank you very much. Closing the outline view solves my problem (I didn't
notice that before
I was only using Fast View option which only minimized Outline). I might
miss Outline feature
but as I'm using managed project and there's no C/C++ Project Paths project
property so I can
make use of your advice (however it will certainly will be usesfull in my
other projects).

Make sure you have "follow includes when generating the Outline View"
preference turned OFF.

Window -> Preferences -> C/C++ has the checkbox named "Follow #include's
when producing the outline view".

I have the "Follow #includes..." disabled as well and it flickers like hell.
I have one file (which is quite large) and if I try to edit this file
Eclipse needs several MINUTES on a save before it even attemps to start a
build (I use the autobuild feature).
