I think what has caused my problem is that I am using the JEE version of Eclipse that I have added the C/C++ project to, and the JEE version has project auto build active by default, which is the only way java development should be done (in my opinion) as when you get these sorts of statement errors for standard java processes one of the solutions provided is for Eclipse to add the necessary include file into the code to resolve the issue (admittedly this won't work for user defined processes). I can turn off the auto build functionality.Hi Stephen,On Mon, 2013-03-18 at 08:34 +1100, Stephen Morris wrote:I am having all sorts of problems with the source code in Eclipse. I have created a new blank C++ project in Eclipse and imported the entire sc directory into that project. Subsequently I have opened dpgroupdlg.cxx in the editor (I'm also not sure why Eclipse displays all directories duplicated) and Eclipse is displaying errors on just about every statement in that file.Well - that's really Eclipse' problem :-) can you turn off it's bogus error display ? I guess getting help with Eclipse would be a good thing to do. Potentially you don't want to create a project - but just use it to edit the specific files.
I may be approaching this process from the wrong angle, but from my perspective I ideally need to create a project containing all the modules that make up calc, so that when I change the source code I can compile it and then run unit tests on the pivot processes and system tests on the entire calc program to make sure I haven't adversely impacted anything else in the application, particularly if I can implement the menu entry to allow formatting of pivot variables post pivot table creation. The easiest way to implement this is to create a project and then build the project which will then create the program.I think the first thing I need to do is to find all the include files and add those directories into the include file path in the project properties. One of the problems I have is that the statement "com::sun::star::sheet::DataPilotFieldGroupBy::SECONDS," is producing an error complaining that symbol SECONDS is not found.This is from an UNO / generated header. It seems highly unlikely that Eclipse is going to do a perfect job of building LibreOffice. As such, I would use it as a syntax-colouring text editor - not in it's all-seeing monster mode ;-)
The only other editor I use occasionally is Netbeans but it does the same thing.How I configure eclipse to consider the idl file to be the same as the hpp file so that these symbols get resolved?I have no idea. You need to edit the code with some sort of source code editor, Elipse is one option. If it can't control it's urges to try to understand the entire (apparently not built) code-base then I'd recommend using something else ;-)
I'll check these out and see if I can understand these first to try to work out how each of the modules interact with each other amalgamate to produce the entire calc application.I am also having difficulty determining which dp module equates to the dialog that gets displayed for variables that are dragged to the pivot table layout areas, to specify the attributes of those variables. Is there any documentation anywhere that explains what each module within the suite actually does and how they relate to what is actually displayed by Libreoffice for each function it performs?Each module ? each top-level directory has README - patches to improve them appreciated. Sadly there is no further good structural documentation at all. In general - if you want to go from the UI -> the source code, you need to go via the .src files - which you can grok for user-visible strings, and then look for the defined names of those in the .hrc files - which are shared between resources and C++ and hence into the relevant source code and down to a widget.

Hope that helps :-)
Michael.
