Configure Eclipse CDT or Codeblocks to get LLVM IR intellisense

I want to configure Eclipse (or Codeblocks) so that when I write a pass, I can at least take advantage of Intellisense (even if building passes directly from within Eclipse is not possible). Update: I am getting at least some intellisense once I enabled Parsing-based Proposals in Eclipse (details below)

So far I have configured Eclipse to use clang to compile simple C++ programs.

To get intellisense for LLVM pass, I added /usr/local/include to Includes directories and tried code:

#include <iostream>
#include <llvm/IR/Function.h>

using namespace std:
int main() {
    cout << "Hello World" << endl;
    return 0;
}

It doesn't fail on #include <llvm/IR/Function.h> itself (i.e. it can find this header file), but upon including subsequent files, gives me

/usr/local/include/llvm/Support/DataTypes.h:58:3: error: "Must #define __STDC_LIMIT_MACROS before #including Support/DataTypes.h"

Any pointers to how I could make it give me intellisense at least?

UPDATE: Eclipse does give me intellisense (at least some of it), I had to check Parsing-based Proposals in Window -> Preferences -> C/C++ -> Editor -> Content Assist -> Advanced (It was unchecked by default).

This is not answering the question directly, but it will ensure, you have a correctly working build environment. It is specific for code blocks.

First checkout the source tree of llvm (directly taken from the getting started guide):

git clone http://llvm.org/git/llvm.git
cd llvm/tools
git clone http://llvm.org/git/clang.git
cd .. 
cd projects
git clone http://llvm.org/git/compiler-rt.git
git clone http://llvm.org/git/libcxx.git
git clone http://llvm.org/git/libcxxabi.git
git clone http://llvm.org/git/test-suite.git
git clone http://llvm.org/git/openmp.git

Remove anything you don't like.

Then create an directory outside the llvm directory:

 cd ..
 mkdir build 

Change your directory (cd) to there and run:

 cd build 
 cmake -g "CodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles" <your configure options> ../llvm 

Assuming llvm shares the root path, otherwise change the ../llvm line to the correct path. Then open it as an existing project in code::blocks.

If all went well, your build environment is setup correctly and code completion should work.
