Summary:                    Unable to specify resource filters in Eclipse
project
Description: 
I generate my project using Eclipse CDT4 - Ninja. I have a subdirectory called
"Third Party" under my source directory that contains boost, QT, and a number of
other very large libraries. I notice that the C++ indexer in Eclipse processes
files in these directories and frequently locks up my machine or crashes.
Indexing takes up to 30 minutes if it decides to complete.

There should be a way I can specify resource filters in CMake scripts. If I can
do this, I can tell Eclipse to ignore the directories I don't want it to scan or
care about. I'd also be able to tell it to ignore .SO files, .A files, and other
non-source file types that way when I use the Open Resource window in Eclipse, I
do not see object files and binaries in the search results.
