FWIW, this is almost always a setup problem, usually include paths and/or 
preprocessor defines not being set up correctly. For CMake, KDevelop is very 
good at setting this up automatically, for automake much less so.

If include paths, compiler flags and definitions are set correctly, KDevelop's 
parser will be very close to perfect, since it uses clang behind the scenes. 
It doesn't matter how complex your template code is.

Performance is a different topic, but correctness is very good these days.

Best,
Sven
