[CMake] cmake, eclipse cdt, and intellisense

2011-12-15 Thread Dan Kegel
It seems that cmake-2.8.4's generator for eclipse falls short
when it comes to intellisense (er, content assist).
While functions that are defined in the same source file are
handled ok, functions in other files don't seem to be.

Here's a simple example:

$ svn co http://winezeug.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ winezeug
$ cd winezeug/cmake_examples/ex7
$ sh demo.sh
$ ~/eclipse/eclipse
Do File / Import / General / Existing Projects, navigate to
~/winezeug/cmake_examples/ex7, and click OK and Finish
Do Project / Build All
In Project Explorer, open _demo/mymain.c
In mymain.c, right click on the call to my_function() and select Open
Declaration

Eclipse then complains Could not find include file 'mylib.h' on include paths

I've poked around a bit in eclipse's settings to see if I can force it
to index everything in the workspace, but haven't found a workaround yet.
Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Dan

To some extent, this is user error.  My demo.sh script added dummy
top-level projects for each source directory because the projects buried
inside Project-Debug@build are so different from what my developers expect.

If I open mymain.c not from the _demo dummy project, but rather from
Project-Debug@build/[Source Directory]/mymain.c, then right-clicking
on Open Declaration does find the line of the .h file that declares
the function.

But this doesn't work in our real world app, so I guess I have to find
a better minimal test case.  I did check the project's C/C++ Include Paths
property, and the Include Paths property does list all my source directories,
so that's not it.
I guess I'll try to put together a better minimal test case, and use
the latest cmake from git.
