Indexer does not open declarations consistently [message #230609]

Hi

I am running the Wascana release 0.9.3, which I believe uses CDT 4.0. The
code is for a DSP, built using a Texas Instruments compiler. I have not
configured CDT to build the code, I just want to use the indexer to help
analyse the code. The code consists mainly of .c files.

I have set the indexer properties to 'Index all files (files neither built
nor included, also)' and rebuilt the index.

I find that the index finds the declarations of some functions but not
others. In particular, if I select a global variable that is declared in
another .c file, clicking F3 does not jump to the declaration.

Please will you offer me advice on how to debug or improve this situation?

Best regards

David

I have discovered that some global variables were not indexed because of a
missing header file that defined their type.

I can't find the indexer's error log that I guess would alert me to such
problems. How can I view the log please?
