C/C++ Indexer – Indexer Timeout

If the indexer gets stuck on a particular file while indexing there is a timeout watchdog, which will terminate the indexing attempt after a certain period.

This can be set as follows:

1. Click Windows > Preferences > C/C++ > Search
2. Enter the timeout value in milliseconds into the text field.
3. Click OK
