| |
| <h1>Configuring The Parser/Indexer</h1> |
| |
| <p> |
| The C/C++ indexer uses the parser to create a database of your |
| source and header files that provides the basis for C/C++ search, |
| navigation features and parts of content assist. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The parser must be configured properly for it to find header files, otherwise |
| the code analysis features may not have sufficient information available, |
| and will not provide a complete analysis. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Additionally it may be necessary to provide the parser with additional information |
| on symbols (preprocessor macros) so that the preprocessing phase of the parser |
| is correct. |
| </p> |
| |

| <p> |
| Tasks for configuring the parser: |
| <ul> |
| <li><a href="../reference/remote_properties_paths.html">Setting up remote include paths</a></li> |
| <li><a href="../reference/remote_properties_symbols.html">Setting up symbols</a></li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p><span class="bold">Configuring the Indexer</span></p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The indexer used for C/C++ projects may be configured using the |
| <strong>C/C++ General > Indexer</strong> properties page. |
| For Remote C/C++ projects the <strong>RDT Remote Fast Indexer</strong> must be selected, |
| otherwise the project will not be able to communicate with the remote index and |
| none of the code analysis features will work correctly. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p><span class="bold">Editor Warnings</span></p> |
| |
| <p> |
| There is a known issue where sometimes the remote editor displays |
| false warnings about syntax errors or invalid include directives. To disable |
| editor warnings do the following: |
| <ol> |
| <li>Use the workbench menu to open the Preferences dialog, <strong>Window > Preferences.</strong></li> |
| <li>Navigate to the Annotations preference page, <strong>General > Editors > Text Editors > Annotations</strong>.</li> |
| <li>Select <strong>C/C++ Indexer Markers.</strong></li> |
| <li>Uncheck all the checkboxes.</li> |
| <li>Click <strong>Apply</strong>.</li> |
| </ol> |
