Dear all,
The Cmake generator of Eclipse project does not work very well, it was not developed for years. As a consequence, the Eclipse project generated by CMake (as recommended in dealii Wiki) sometimes results with annoying issues with indexer. 
There is a useful plugin: cmake4eclipse that allows eclipse to index a project based on CMakeLists. Here are the instructions how to set a project using it:
It works very well for me. I also have dealii as a project in eclipse so I've specyfie
I think including it in the wiki could be useful. 
Additionaly adding info about support for c++11  in Eclipse would be useful:

(for example without it C++ shared/unique pointers are not indexed)

Dear Michal,

can you modify the wiki yourself? It should be possible to open a PR with the suggested modifications. Everyone is welcome to contribute, and I think your information would be very valuable to other users as well.

Best,
Luca.

Yes, some years ago Wolfgang gave me rights to modify wiki, but I didn't want to do it without permission.
