Hello,
I am using Gnu Global 6.6.3 in the terminal on Mac OS Mojave V. 10.14.3.
>From the command line, I issued gtags in a directory with file containing j.cc
>as follows:
#if SWITCH
void foo(int a[8],
#else
void foo(int a[16],
#endif
int b)
{
a[0] = b;
}
void bar(int c, int d)
{
c = d;
}
When I then issued "global -f j.cc", from the command line, no tags were output.
The problem is because of the unbalanced parentheses in conditional
preprocessor directive because when j.cc is changed to this, then
gtags followed by "global -f j.cc" works:
void foo(int a[8],
int b)
{
a[0] = b;
}
void bar(int c, int d)
{
c = d;
}
In the ctags documentation, I found this explanation for ctags:
In general, ctags tries to be smart about conditional preprocessor
directives. If a preprocessor conditional is
encountered within a statement which defines a tag, ctags follows only the
first branch of that conditional
Can gtags similarly be made aware of preprocessor switches?
Thanks,
Felix Fernandes
