no (path) in problems window list [message #1836296]

background:

using eclipse/cdt 2020-09 (4.17.0)

C/C++ makefile project being managed under eclipse CDT. the makefile project is treed so that libraries are built first in separate directories and each library must pass a ClassTest.cpp unit test for the build to continue. I have provided numerous build targets to the toplevel makefile and each are registered in the eclipse project profile.

When executing the "classes" build target in eclipse the problems window correctly locates all errors and warnings that are associated with class declarations and implementations. However, syntax errors that are encountered in the unit test file ClassTest.cpp are not correctly registered in the errors description. The (path) field is empty, which disallows double clicking on the error to jump to the error location in ClassTest.cpp.

Why? and how to fix?

Please try to use smaller images.
I couldn't read your post until I tried to reply.
The right part was truncated.

How are the errors reported in the build console?
Do they look like this?
Note the path in the error message.

g++ -c  -Wall -c -std=c++11 -g -O0 -I inc   src/ARRAY.cpp -o obj/ARRAY.o
src/ARRAY.cpp:31:1: error: 'an' does not name a type; did you mean 'yn'?
   31 | an error
      | ^~

the exact same way as they exist for class files. Only difference is that it is a program file ClassTest.cpp instead of class.hpp and class.cpp

-- in console output: introduced error for description of problem- -
Making Util:: classes...
Making Net:: classes...
ClassTest.cpp: In function 'bool Test_SpcPktMessage()':
ClassTest.cpp:188:67: error: invalid conversion from 'const char*' to 'int' [-fpermissive]
MessageSpcPkt message("msg", MessageSpcPkt::RAW_TC, 0xf0, 0x00);
^
In file included from ClassTest.cpp:14:
/6TB/home/Q7-common/classes/Net/MessageSpcPkt.hpp:60:32: note: initializing argument 1 of 'Net::MessageSpcPkt::MessageSpcPkt(int, uint8_t, uint8_t, uint8_t)'
explicit MessageSpcPkt(int mType, uint8_t apid, uint8_t cpu, uint8_t priority = 0):
~~~~^~~~~

well I just noticed that the make is from within the actual source directly and it is NOT including full path on the error line. is that a constraint of the error checker, that it needs full paths to resolve?

Apparently not, because a similar error introduced into a class file for testing purporse works as expected, yet does NOT contain full path infomration in the console log.
