Hi,
I have a large C project which has a common code base so there are a lot
of #define's used to distinguish between different platforms. One of the
#defines is _WIN32. Now the CDT does not define this by default, it
defines __WIN32 (Two underscores). So I would like to define this symbol
in the project properties so that the indexer is able to index properly.
When I try to define this, I face weird issues. Sometimes I am able to
define this and sometimes not. I have some other defines as well. But
when I change the sequence of adding these symbols of these defines
_WIN32 gets added to the list but when I change the sequence in some
other way, it does not work. I am not able to figure out what the heck
is going on .. I am 100% sure that _WIN32 is not defined because the
code is not grayed out in my editor.
Any ideas are welcome !
I am using CDT 4.0 with Eclipse 3.3 in Windows and have a Makefile
project and I do not use automatic symbol discovery.
Thanks,
- Vishal
