Importing a makefile inside Eclipse - symbols could not be resolved - eclipse

I'm trying to import an existing project into Eclipse. I did the following steps:
- I downloaded the source from a repository.
- I ran ./autogen.sh
- I ran ./configure
- I selected Makefile Project with Existing Code from Eclipse File menu
The class files are now grouped by type (.h and .cpp) and I can reach .cpp from .h by pressing ctrl+Tab and vice versa.
When I press Build, the building starts and works fine. If I put syntax errors inside a file the make returns an error.
However Eclipse's intellisense reports many error like "Function snprintf could not be resolved", and "Symbol 'NULL' could not be resolved".
How can I hide/resolve these errors? Was my import procedure incomplete?

You should add /usr/include to the path (see http://help.eclipse.org/juno/topic/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user/tasks/cdt_t_proj_paths.htm) or tune the Discovery options (http://help.eclipse.org/juno/topic/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user/reference/cdt_u_newproj_discovery_options.htm?cp=11_4_6_8_2_2)

fix importing errors in Eclipse

I have a folder structure:
/mama-mia
/framework
/classses
FrameworkClass1.py - contains FrameworkClass1
/projects
/project1
Project1Class.py - contains Project1Class
inside Project1Class.py
from framework.classses import FrameworkClass1
Eclipse shows error in this line "Unresolved inmport". How to fix this error - in Eclipse only. For runtime it is worknig as paths are added dynamically.
You need to set the /framework parent folder as a source folder (i.e.: that's the folder that's added to the PYTHONPATH).
See: http://www.pydev.org/manual_101_project_conf2.html for more details.

Progress developer studio - ignore error checking include files

In Progress Developer Studio (Eclipse):
How do you set up the project so it won't "compile" (check for errors) in .i (include) files separately?
Now we get a lot of errors because include files can not be run on its own. For example some variables that are used in the .i file are defined in p/w file - that will generate an error.
By default includes are not compiled. The errors shown on include files are caused by other sources (.cls, .p, .w) that failed to compile on that include.

cmake to eclipse project conversion issue

I am trying to create an eclipse project from a cmake project .
I used the following command
cmake -G "Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles" ./`
it gives the following error
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:119 (find_package):
By not providing "FindGlib.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "Glib", but
CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Glib" (requested
version 2.28) with any of the following names:
GlibConfig.cmake
glib-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "Glib" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"Glib_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "Glib"
provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been
installed.
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
I have glib installed . actually it couldn't resolve the path i guess. wherever find is there in cmake file , it is giving the smiler errors. please i suggest a way out, i badly need to load this project in cmake. Thanks.
Here is line 119 where error message is pointing
find_package(Glib 2.28 REQUIRED)
include_directories(${Glib_INCLUDE_DIRS})
list(APPEND LIBS ${Glib_LIBRARIES})
add_definitions(${Glib_DEFINITIONS})
When you call find_package(MyPackage) in a CMake file, it tries to find a FindMyPackage.cmake configuration in its system path (/usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules on my Ubuntu box), or in the directory you did specify as CMAKE_MODULE_PATH).
The solution to your problem is to create a directory for modules in your source tree (e.g. CMakeModules), put in it a FindGlib.cmake file that you can find using Google, and add
set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/CMakeModules)
in your CMakeLists.txt before the actual call to find_package.
(your problem is not related to the Eclipse generator, you could remove that from the title of the question).

Eclipse Indigo CDT: Function could not be resolved

This feels silly, but its been 2 days...somewhere after upgrading from Ubuntu 10.04 to 10.11 and from Eclipse Helios to Eclipse Indigo, I got stuck with the following problem:
Problem Description:
I'm trying to use a function in math.h called isinf(), but the problem also occurs with things like isnan(). The program compiles fine on the command line using make and fine in eclipse using build. But if I open the program file in eclipse it reports that it cannot reolve the isinf() function call. If I just insert the program contents into a new project and new source file, the error appears immediately. This problem did not occur under 11.04 with Eclipse Helios CDT
Questions:
Why are these errors only reported when the program file is opened and not on when the program is compiled; why are the errors not detected make is run from the command line? Is there a solution/workaround available?
Version Info
Linux Ubuntu 10.11 64-bit
Eclipse CDT Indigo, Service Release 1, Build id: 20110916-0149
(Also using Eclipse EE Indigo – if that makes a difference)
GNU Make 3.81
gcc 4.6.1-9Ubuntu3
To Duplicate:
Please find the two files you'll need to replicate below:
Step 0. Verify that everything is fine outside of Eclipse
Copy the attached source file and make file
create a directory e.g. Mkdir FunTest
Save the source file a 'Test.cpp' and the makefile as 'makefile'
Open a command prompt and navigate to the directory e.g. FunTest
Enter 'make'
Enter ./TestOut
Program responds “is not infinite”
Step 1. Create the project in Eclipse
Open Eclipse
Select File|New|MakeFile Project with Existing Code
Click Browse – navigate to the directory (FunTest) and click ok
Select 'Linux GCC' from the Toolchain selector
Click Finish
Step 2. Find the Error
Click Build All (Ctrl-B) – project builds without errors
Open the project in the project explorer to display the file in the directory
Double click on the file “Test.cpp”
Note the error icon next to line testing for infinity
Note the 2 error messages:
Semantic error: Function _isinff could not be resolved
Semantic error: Function _isinfl could not be resolved
Test.cpp:
include <math.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int TestNum = 10;
if (isinf(TestNum) == 0)
printf("Not infinite\n");
return 0;
}
makefile:
# Specify the compiler
CC = g++
# Specify the compiler flags
CFLAGS += -c
# Specify the files making up the application
SOURCES = Test.cpp
OBJECTS = $(SOURCES:.cpp=.o)
EXECUTABLE = TestOut
all: $(EXECUTABLE)
$(EXECUTABLE): $(OBJECTS)
$(CC) $(LDFLAGS) $(OBJECTS) $(LDLIBS) -o $#
.cpp.o:
$(CC) $(CPPFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) $< -o $#
install:
#echo "Build complete!"
I have experienced similar problems of the CDT reporting errors even though the code compiled fine within Eclipse Indigo.
Project > Properties > Settings > Binary Parsers > "GNU Elf Parser"
helped in my case. I had the "Elf Parser" checked.
That looks like a problem that many others have had with eclipse CDT before. Sometimes shutting eclipse down and then starting it back up again is enough to help. If that isn't the case, take a look at what I have below:
Compilation ok, but eclipse content assist having problems
Check your includes: if you're using include<math.h> change it to include<cmath>. The same for stdio.h and stdlib.h, you should replace by cstdio and cstdlib. Another option may be change you project to a C project instead of a C++.
You are missing -lm option in your build preferences.
Project->Properties->Settings->Miscleanous->Other (linker) flags[]
For me, it was solved by adding a specific ‘Source Location’ folder, and removing the default. In Luna, it is under:
Project > Properties > C/C++ General > Paths and Symbols > Source
Location

What is the difference between building C++ Builder project from IDE and command line?

I have different behaviour of compiler, when building project from IDE and from command-line, which I can not explain.
The detailed issue's description is rather big, but it's really simple.
I have a C++ Builder project, which has a PAS-file included (IncludeUnits.pas). This pas-file has several units and inc-files listed. These files are located in separate folders and these folders are listed in library&include paths in project's options.
Folders layout:
C:\Demo\Bin
C:\Demo\Project
C:\Demo\Project\CBuilder5
C:\Demo\Project\Common
C:\Demo\Source
C:\Demo\Source\Common
Bin is output folder, Project/CBuilder5 holds project (bpr-file), Project/Common holds included pas-file (IncludeUnits.pas), Source and Source/Common hold other files (pas&inc). I think that it's pretty usual layout.
C:\Demo\Project\Common\ IncludeUnits.pas :
unit IncludeUnits;
interface
uses
Test;
implementation
end.
C:\Demo\Source\ Test.pas :
unit Test;
interface
{$I Test.inc}
implementation
end.
C:\Demo\Source\Common\ Test.inc :
// this file is empty
If I compile this project from C++ Builder IDE - it will compile fine. C++ Builder IDE doesn't have any additional paths in IDE settings set.
Now, I want to compile it from command-line. First, I issue
bpr2mak.exe MyProject.bpr
command.
This command creates MyProject.mak file, where I can see all paths ("....\Source" and "....\Source\Common" are the paths in question):
...
INCLUDEPATH = $(BCB)\include;$(BCB)\include\vcl;..\Common;..\..\Source;..\..\Source\Common
LIBPATH = $(BCB)\lib\obj;$(BCB)\lib;..\Common;..\..\Source;..\..\Source\Common
...
Now, I run make command:
make.exe -B -f"MyProject.mak"
It gives me the following output:
C:\PROGRA~1\Borland\CBUILD~2\BIN\dcc32 -N2....\Bin -N0....\Bin -$Y+ -$W -$R -v -JPHNE -M -UC:\PROGRA~1\Borland\CBUILD~2\bin..\include;C:\PROGRA~1\Borland\CBUILD~2\bin..\include\vcl;..\Common;..\..\Source;..\..\Source\Common -D_DEBUG;_RTLDLL;NO_STRICT -OC:\PROGRA~1\Borland\CBUILD~2\bin..\include;C:\PROGRA~1\Borland\CBUILD~2\bin..\include\vcl;..\Common;..\..\Source;..\..\Source\Common --BCB ..\Common\IncludeUnits.PAS
Borland Delphi Version 13.0 Copyright (c) 1983,99 Inprise Corporation
C:\Demo\Project\Common\IncludeUnits.pas(1) C:\Demo\Project\Common\IncludeUnits.pas(1) C:\Demo\Project\Common\IncludeUnits.pas(1) C:\Demo\Project\Common\IncludeUnits.pas(6) C:\Demo\Source\Test.pas(1) C:\Demo\Source\Test.pas(5) Fatal: File not found: 'Test.inc'
As you can see - all search path is passed to compiler and the file (Test.inc) is all here - in that Source\Common folder. But still compiler can't find it?
Of course, I run both commands from folder with bpr-file. And changing paths to absolute doesn't help.
Copying Test.inc from Source\Common to Source will help. Changing {$I Test.inc} to {$I Common\Test.inc} will also help.
Why? It seems that I'm missing something. Remember: project have no problems with compiling from IDE, Test.inc is found without copying or changing declaration. Did I miss some switch to make or dcc32?
I found the reason: command line for dcc32 misses -I switch, which specifies paths for include files.
For some reason, bpr2mak doesn't respect this option. Fortunately, it allows you to specify alternate template for conversion bpr -> mak. I edited default template and added "-I" option to it, pass new template to bpr2mak - and it worked.
