Description ianfp 2013-02-01 18:45:16 UTC

When I do a "search in projects" I get all kinds of irrelevant results from my include path. I want to search through my code, not all of the third-party code that my application depends on. Plus, it really slows the search down because there are a lot of files in my include path.

Apparently, some people want just the opposite:

Perhaps we could have a per-project setting to enable/disable searching the include path?

Personally, I do not like this feature as well. I will try to look at it.

Thanks for reporting.
