Description Kevin Connor Arpe

Build Identifier: 20110301-1815

I have a large C/C++ project in CDT.  About 1000 header files and source files.

Right click on root -> Index -> Freshen All Files
(wait a while)

Open a source file.
Put my cursor in the name of one function.
Right click -> References -> Project

Search window says: (0 matches)

I use regular File Search for function name... I find references.

Something interesting to note:
This project is checked out using Subclipse (SVN for Eclipse).
I noticed the indexer always falls out of date after an update.
Takes a few "Refresh" or "Index -> Freshen All Files" to get things working again.

My Subclipse plug-in is 2.2.3

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
See details above.

Hello together,

the problem exists also for me. We have also a Project with approx. an equal amount of header and source files. The Indexer isn't able to find all references for functions. I use the latest version of source navigator for crossreferencing instead, but I would love to have all in one tool. 

sincerely

M

Sounds similar to bug 302767. Are there any suspicious log-entries in <workspace>/.log/.metadata ?
