Hi, Jason, I posted my experience on Netbeans forum:
http://forums.netbeans.org/topic15246.html

Please see if it could help you.

I use the make log file approach. It does not have
to be built with “-g3 -gdwarf-2″ flags, but needs
some filtering of the gcc command lines so that
netbeans could understand them.

Minghua: I’d be very interested in any information you can share about how to make tagging work better. =:)

Hi, Jason, Sorry to here that. I’ll post the tricks that worked for me for 6.5.1. There are still some problems with 6.7 but hope they get fixed in 6.7.1 or later.

The ability to do an accurate tagging is the very valuable feature of Netbeans.

And thanks to you for spending time to experiment and sharing the result here.

Hi Minghua. Actually, no, I never could get it working in NetBeans. I’m using old-school emacs now. =:/

Hi, Jason, Has Vladimir helped you solve the problem?
I’m using netbeans cpp 6.5.1 and 6.7. It mostly works with a little performance glitch. Just think you should update your page if you have got it work.

There’s a Perforce plugin for Netbeans 6 here:

It doesn’t seem to support multiple changelists though.

Hi Vladimir!

No, actually, the project explorer contains all of my source files–it’s just the code assistance that is only finding 31 C files.

And I’d definitely love the help!! I’ll e-mail you privately right after I hit send here. =:)

I’m one of the Netbeans C/C++ pack developers.

I’d like to help you with getting code assistance right; but I need to ask you some questions. Could we contact via e-mail?

(As I understand you are the owner of the site, in this case you know my e-mail – could you send me your a letter then?)

So as I understand the Project explorer doesn’t contain the majority of your source files – is this correct? This might be caused by improper value of the “Source Files” folder in the 4-th page of “New Project” wizard.

Interesting. I’m trying just now to figure out how to teach eclipse+CDT about include paths. Will try Netbeans too in a few then as I didn’t know it could make a decent C/C++ IDE. Cheers.
