Build Identifier: 20110615-0604

The Editor shows the error Symbol 'CLOCKS_PER_SEC' could not be resolved
However, the required header file <ctime> is available and the code can be compiled without problems. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Create following document and execute

#include <ctime>
int main( void )
{
	double foo = 3.1415 / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
	return 0;
}
Comment 1 Markus Schorn CLA 2011-07-27 07:40:22 EDT 
* Please create a parser log for the test file (Context menu of file in project explorer - Index - Create parser log). 
* Also, try to find the header file that defines CLOCKS_PER_SEC and attach it to the bug.
* Check the project setting 'C/C++ General - Index - Files to index up-front', what does it contain?

Had the like problem.
Created the sample project above, compiled it. Yes, same errors.

-- added correct #include path to the project
   project->options->paths->includes->GnuC->include directories.
   (J:\cygwin\usr\include   in my case)

Now this compiles correctly.

/** "the like problem" means that I had to change
   #include <ctime>
to
   #include <time.h>
because there was no ctime.h in my cygwin.
Also the 
   #include <time> 
did not work. **/



-- returned to my project (closed the sample project), 
added the same path as above, to it.

Everything works. (Indigo/Cygwin)
Seems this was not a bug.

Including <ctime> or time.h 

Does not fix the problem. The definition is reported missing but the code compiles normally.

I can reproduce the issue using gcc 4.6.2 on a linux host. It is fixed by what we have done for bug 197989.
