My eclipse\'s indexer doesn\'t work at times. By that I mean when I ctrl click a function it says

Answer 1

Here is the solution I used after Project->C++ Index->Rebuild failed. This trick avoid deleting your current project :

1) Copy the current project (Right click->Copy from Project Explorer)
2) Paste it (Right click->Paste from Project Explorer) and give the copy another name
3) The indexer should now start and index both projects
4) When indexation is complete, you can delete the copy

PS: Make sure your original project is an actual C++ Project or this will obviously not work.
