I should add: this is a makefile-based
project, and if anyone wants to try it for themselves it can be
found at
https://github.com/davmac314/dinit. Building is quite
straightforward and it shouldn't require any special configuration
in Eclipse.
Hi all,
I'm a user and occasional contributor to Eclipse CDT. I want to
ask for help in tracking down the cause of a problem that is
biting me after updating.
I've just updated to Eclipse 2019-06 and with it CDT 9.8.0
(after using 2019-03 with 9.7.2). With that update, one of my
projects is suddenly showing a lot of "Symbol 'name' could not
be resolved" for no clear reason and with no apparent solution;
I've tried the usual tricks such as re-building the index.
From a little investigation, it appears that the errors are
shown if the symbol is defined in a header file that is included
only indirectly. If the symbol is defined in a header that is
included directly from the source file where the symbol is
referenced, everything's ok.
For example I have a line of code:
if (signame == "HUP") return SIGHUP;
The "SIGHUP" is underlined and reported as symbol-not-resolved.
However, the appropriate header file (csignal) is *indirectly*
included. If I add "#include <csignal>" to the top of the
source file containing the line of code above, the problem does
go away. Note that even when the "Symbol could not be resolved"
error is displayed, going to the declaration works just fine.
Going back to a pre-CDT 9.8.0 build (which I had built myself
previously) in Eclipse 2019-06, the problem goes away.
I wanted to bi-sect this issue to see if I can identify when it
began. However, it seems I'm unable to build the tagged CDT
9.8.0 (using maven):
[INFO] Fetching p2.index from http://download.eclipse.org/cbi/updates/license/2.0.1.v20180423-1114/

http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.12milestones/S-4.12RC1a-201905310245.
-> [Help 1]
So, does anyone have any clues about the problem itself, and
secondly can anyone help with building non-HEAD using maven?
Thanks,
Davin
