c++ eclipse wrong error interpretation [message #893911]

I'm having a problem with eclipse C++. My project compiles and runs but eclipse (juno) keeps saying there are thousands of errors. For example there's a function SetRun in my code, and eclipse mentions this error: "called Invalid arguments 'Candidates are: void SetRun(?)'", whereas SetRun is of type static void SetRun (uint32_t run);

I have quite a lot of similar errors like that, where eclipse doesn't seem to understand the type of the function and puts a '?' instead.

I also have many errors like this: "symbol '*' could not be resolved."

I think this is all part of the same issue.

What can I do to make eclipse stop telling me about these errors?

It seems the internal indexer cannot resolve many symbols because of missing includes.
Which platform and toolchain do you use?
Do you let Eclipse create the Makefiles or do you use your own?
