During work I opened many files. KDevelop takes 1.6GB ram. Still I have opened 15 files. In one of them (header) I comment some member, which is used in cpp file. I switch to cpp and I wait till every usage this member will be underlined as error. I wait, wait and wait. Couple minutes passed. Usage of member is still not underlined. I refreshed file (F5) and member is underlined. After that I uncomment the same member in header file. I switched to cpp and see like usage is underlined. Again it takes several minutes and nothing happen. For sure refresh is required. I'm not sure what it depends on. I doesn't observe this is I have opened only couple files. Editor view is split in vertical, so I have 2 editors.
I have seen this issue. the immediate fix (assuming your parser isnt stuck, which happens sometimes) is to reload the file.
I think no one fixed this till now. I experienced this issue after opening in my project only 3 not so big files. Weight of first: ~5kb (declaration of class A), Weight of second: ~33kb (definition of class A), Weight of third: ~161kb (definition of some different class). I inserted some new function (39 lines) in second one and started update missing declarations used in this function - it was QToolButton, and included was QMenuBar, so has been found. After that I switched to cpp, unfortunately after several seconds variable was still underlined as not defined. OK. I saved both files and refreshed definition file only, because I don't want to wait do not know how much time till parser decide to run (or never did it) and update highlighting of code :/. Of course this fixed issue. OK. I updated next declaration of variable used in the same new function - this time it was QPushButton (of course proper include was present). After switching to cpp file I met again the same situation. After couple minutes code was still marked as wrong :(. F5 helped, but this is not solution. In my opinion issue is very annoying, why I need to run manually refresh and parser can't do it? I don't understand why parser is not run or run properly to update code highlighting. Is it caching or what? What has been broke in code. I don't remember such issue that happened several months ago.
Hm, so by "stops work" you mean "it doesn't update dependent files"?
> Hm, so by "stops work" you mean "it doesn't update dependent files"? Yes, If you understand header and cpp file (describing the same class) as dependent. I copied and pasted some function (its definition) from different editor to mentioned file (in KDevelop). After that I started update declaration file. And in cpp file happened nothing when I added missing global variables. I expected that after I add declaration it will not be underlined like undeclared (in cpp file). It looked like parser didn't notice any changes. Of course firstly I added declaration (in header file) of function which I inserted in cpp. As I said I needed invoke parser manually by pressing F5.

Seems issue fixed. I opened 20 files, made couple tests and I don't observe the issue.
