Description trampas CLA 2016-06-03 07:50:17 EDT
I have imported a project and manually had to enter the include paths for 152 sub directories. It would be nice if eclipse could include all the sub directories in a project in the include path. 

Extending the idea would be that in the project explorer if you right click on a file or directory currently the "resource configuration" menu will allow you to include or exclude the directory/file from the build. It would be nice if the "resource configuration" menu also allowed you to include or exclude directories (and maybe sub directories) from the compiler's include paths. 

Additionally with 152 include paths when doing a build the command line for compiling a file is very very long. It would be nice if the console for the build could automatically collapse the -I include paths and show box with "..." where clicking on the box would expand and show all the include paths. This way you don't have to scroll forever to see end of the compile command.
