Did you read
http://xtalk.msk.su/~ott/en/writings/emacs-devenv/EmacsCedet.html ?

Specifically

,----
| (defun my-c-mode-cedet-hook ()
|  (local-set-key "." 'semantic-complete-self-insert)
|  (local-set-key ">" 'semantic-complete-self-insert))
| (add-hook 'c-mode-common-hook 'my-c-mode-cedet-hook)
`----

I used company-mode as it has far better search and context help for
completion candidates. To use the semantic functions simply comment out
the "(company-mode 1") in the my-cedet-hook in the code below.

My own set up is here:

But borrowed heavily from Alex Ott's excellent article (I struggle
with the CEDET docs as they cover an awful lot of things I haven't a
clue about!).

Company mode:
