Eclipse-cdt to index my C++ code only

Is it possible to have eclipse i开发者_高级运维ndex my C++ code (built using cmake)?

I prefer to compile/run the actual code using a bash prompt, but I would like to write code in an editor like eclipse so I can easily follow definitions and have auto-completion.

I'm worried the C++ indexing in eclipse will become out of sync at some point because I'm compiling outside.

Right now the method I'm using is this method: cmake -G"Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles"

which appears to work, but it seems like this method also causes eclipse to rebuild my project when I import it in.

Yes, I currently use Eclipse as an editor with its index on a project that is built outside of eclipse. Just turn off all the automatic build options in the project, and it will still index the code for you whenever a file changes. My project uses a bunch of special scripts to perform the build, so I just left it as a default c++ project from existing code, using the CDT builder when I created the project.
