Happens with etags in current cvs emacs also. I also reported the problem to the emacs bug report email... here's what they had to say: Dear David, the etags distributed with Emacs 21.3 is more than three years old, and has some bugs that are corrected in the newest version, which is not officially released with Emacs yet. In the example that you report you are even lucky, because on the same test case the 21.3 etags dumps core on my box :-) I suggest you download <ftp://fly.isti.cnr.it/pub/software/unix/etags.tar.gz>, where you will find the latest etags.c and man page together with a precompiled static binary for Linux. Latest etags was added in emacs-21.4-2. Is it any better now? How do I get that version? I'm "up2date" on FC3 and I still get: emacs --version GNU Emacs 21.3.1 I've done a search of the redhat web site and of rpmfind for emacs-21.4-2 and haven't found anything. You can find it in a local "rawhide" (Fedora Core development) mirror, or is you have to from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/Fedora/RPMS/ Alternatively you could just download the latest etags yourself, build it and test it: it is a small program. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: etags doesn't create a tag for main in the following program: #define TCL_DONT_WAIT (1<<1) int Tcl_DoOneEvent(int a) { return 0; } void MainLoop() { while (Tcl_DoOneEvent(TCL_DONT_WAIT)!=0) { } } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { } Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): emacs 21.3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Paste the example code above into a file named foo.cc 2. execute "etags foo.cc" 3. execute "grep main TAGS" and see no tag for main Actual Results: No tag generated for main. Expected Results: A tag should be generated for main. Additional info: It also didn't work in redhat9. It does work if the while (Tcl...) loop is removed.
