Description D. Fahsig CLA 2011-03-30 07:03:08 EDT 
This problem might be CDT specific, but I do not know.
Neither does the indexer.
I have different configs for different applications but same code basis and do not want to use libraries.
So i chose to exclude one set of files in Config 1 and include that set in Config 2 but exclude the included set of Config 1.
Thus I only have one main() per configuration. It does work, but the project explorer does not reflect the changes to the configurations.
It should disable the files from config 1 when config 2 is used. For Config 1 this works (config 2 files are disabled) and the config 2 files are not indexed, too.
When switching configs the indexer should update and so should the project explorer view.

Are you referring to CDT launch configurations?

No, I'm referring to the cdt build configurations as can be seen in the screenshot in comment 2.
The screenshot in comment 3 shows the project explorer with the excluded files (from build).

Thanks for reporting back. Moving to CDT for comment.

Keep in mind that Project Explorer and other UI displays the configuration specified in preferences, not Active configuration which is used by build. See discussion in the referenced bug.
