It's a commonly asked question and frequently goes without an answer. I
tried semantic but couldn't really get it to work. You might ask on
their mailing list as I think thats the only route. I have a nasty
feeling that using emacs as a C/C++ IDE might be coming to the end of
the road as it falls behind in many of the features (code completion,
refactoring for an example) that more modern IDEs like Eclipse
provides. The maintainer of ecb as good as said the same. A shame.
