Created attachment 245821 [details] Eclipse .log If an UNC path (\\Server\directory\to\include) is added to the C++ Include Paths (project properties->C/C++ General->Path and Symbols->Includes->GNU C++) the indexer crashes with a java.lang.NullPointerException. UNC for C Includes works well. The top of stack trace (Full stack trace attached - .log): java.lang.NullPointerException at org.eclipse.remote.core.RemoteServicesUtils.toURI(RemoteServicesUtils.java:126) at org.eclipse.ptp.internal.rdt.sync.cdt.core.SyncUNCPathConverter.toURI(SyncUNCPathConverter.java:36) at org.eclipse.ptp.internal.rdt.sync.cdt.core.SyncUNCPathConverter.toURI(SyncUNCPathConverter.java:49) at org.eclipse.cdt.internal.core.UNCPathConverterImpl.toURI(UNCPathConverterImpl.java:89) at org.eclipse.cdt.internal.core.pdom.indexer.FileExistsCache.isFile(FileExistsCache.java:63) at org.eclipse.cdt.internal.core.pdom.indexer.ProjectIndexerInputAdapter.resolveIncludeFile(ProjectIndexerInputAdapter.java:114) at org.eclipse.cdt.internal.core.index.IndexBasedFileContentProvider.isIncludedWithPragmaOnceSemantics(IndexBasedFileContentProvider.java:113) We are using Synchronized C/C++ Projects to develop (using Eclipse/CDT XLC/C++) an AIX server application on Windows PCs. It's not possible to use Eclipse on AIX side. Therefore coding on Windows and compiling (xlC) on AIX side. Because of this development environment it's necessary to include the header files from the AIX server via UNC path in Eclipse. What works for C Includes but not for C++ Includes since Luna. With Kepler it works for C++, too. A workaround is to include the AIX header files through a windows network drive (e.g. Z:/includes). In a samba share (folder name includes) on AIX I created links to the required include directories and added the includes in Eclipse through the network drive. Content of folder includes on AIX: cxxtest -> /usr/cxxtest informix_esql -> /informix/incl/esql informix_public -> /informix/incl/public optfree -> /opt/freeware/include usr -> /usr/include vacpp -> /usr/vacpp/include Eclipse C++ Includes in Path and Symbols: Z:/includes/usr instead of \\server\usr\include Z:/includes/vacpp instead of \\server\usr\vacpp\include Z:/includes/infromix_esql instead of \\server\informix\incl\esql Z:/includes/infromix_public instead of \\server\informix\incl\public Z:/includes/cxxtest instead of \\server\usr\cxxtest Z:/includes/optfree instead of \\server\opt\freeware\include
