Why does Eclipse CDT say: 'syntax error', but compilation no problem

Question

I am working in existing C code which has a couple of lines with statements similar to this one:

struct collect_conn *tc = (struct collect_conn *) 
     ((char *         


        

Answer 1

Iv got the same problem. There is 2 definition of offsetof (one for C and one for C++). IMO the problem come from that

For example if i type

#ifndef __cplusplus
#endif

Eclipse will grey it. It mean __cplusplus is defined, but my project is a C

Unfortunatly i dont find a fix.
