Package: otags
Version: 3.09.0-1+zack
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Please add tagging of the ocaml standard library in both vim and emacs
formats. The corresponding tags file could be shipped in
/var/lib/otags/{vi,emacs} and users willing to use them could point
their favorite editors to them.
Attached you can find a patch that:
- provide a /usr/sbin/update-otags script which tags `ocamlc -where` in
both format and store the results as /var/lib/otags/{vi,emacs}/TAGS
- adds a cron.daily entry which invokes update-otags
- invokes update-otags in otags postinst script
Still TODO (imo):
- parsing the whole `ocamlc -where` lead to errors for .mli/.ml that
uses camlp4 syntax extensions. They are not a problem since otags
after printing parse errors on stderr proceed in its work ignoring the
files (for this reason the cron entry redirect stderr to /dev/null).
However it should be possible to parse that files correctly using
otags' -pa flag, I've not investigated it in detail though.
Still, in order to implement this there should be a way to distinguish
syntax extension installed in `ocamlc -where` to add all of them to
otags cmdline. Such a distinction is not provided in the current ocaml
packaging still for debian.
Cheers.
