How to add files to project using a wildcard but exclude them from tagging?

[pieterc]

Hi there 

I want to set up my project to recursively add files as a wildcard to a project, e.g. all *.c files but even though they are added to the project so that I can open and view them, I do not want certain directories to be tagged.

I know there's an option to exclude files or directories from the Wildcard Properties but then they are not added to the project. Also, I have to repeat the exclude pattern for each wildcard, e.g. *.c, *.h, *.cpp, *.hpp, etc.

I am looking for a workspace / project wide option to ignore specific directories from being tagged even though they are added to the project.

Thanks in advance,
Pieter

I don't think there is an option for excluding files from being tagged but still be added to the project.
