I don't know where it is configured. I use Custom Build System. Where is
this option?

Is it an option of KDevelop and where is it?

Actually syntax parser is broken in several ways. Now it red-underlined
lots of types in files (almost all or all of them) as syntax errors. I
tried to jump from one of them and it jumped to the beginning of some
random unrelated file and after that everything was fixed. All red "errors"
was gone. I believe you don't test your software properly, do you?
