CUDA and Eclipse: how can I tell the eclipse that <<< (or >>>) is part of the syntax?

So far I have found out that Eclipse cannot complain about the proprietary CUDA keywords, defining them, if defined __CDT_PARSER__. The following code does not allow Eclipse to complain about most CUDA keywords.

// Prevent eclipse from bitching about unknown keywords
#ifdef __CDT_PARSER__
#define __global__
#define __device__
#define __host__
#define __shared__
#endif

However, this does not work with the brackets used to configure the kernel launch, since my kernels usually have long lists of arguments, this is annoying. Any ideas?

Here is a solution that will work with Eclipse CDT, Visual Studio or Qt Creator. This is my solution:

#if (defined __CDT_PARSER__) || (defined __INTELLISENSE__) || (defined Q_CREATOR_RUN)
#define __global__
#define __device__
#define __host__
#define __shared__
#define CUDA_KERNEL_DIM(...)

#else
#define CUDA_KERNEL_DIM(...)  <<< __VA_ARGS__ >>>

#endif

Then call the kernels with:

myKernel CUDA_KERNEL_DIM(gridDim, blockDim) (foo, bar);
