Hello,
I'm trying to build a glibc.c.tags file out of (selected) glibc headers. but due to glibc's heavy attributes and macros use, many symbols are not included.
I have created the following ignore.tags file (under ~/.config/geany/), but *nothing* has changed. ~ $ cat ~/.config/geany/ignore.tags __LEAF __LEAF_ATTR __THROW __THROWNL __attribute__+ __attribute_malloc__ __attribute_pure__ __attribute_const__ __attribute_used__ __attribute_noinline__ __attribute_deprecated__ __attribute_format_arg__+ __attribute_format_strfmon__+ __nonnull+ __attribute_warn_unused_result__ __wur
I must have done something wrong, any help greatly appreciated.

When you open the glibc headers in Geany, do the tags show in the symbol list?
Can you show the command-line you used to generate the file?
Also, perhaps try using the -P option when generating tags.

Hello,

yes.

geany -g glibc.c.tags ~/glibc.h (where glibc.h contains some #defines and #includes).
Also, perhaps try using the -P option when generating tags.
thanks!, that seems to work (I just had to make a header list -via gcc -M glibc.h- before). I just hope I don't lose anything...

Here when I open string.h, these lines seem to confuse the C tag parser and no more tags are parsed:
#ifdef __cplusplus extern "C" { #endif
Preprocessing would remove these lines however.

Checking the docs -M says it suppresses warnings. Geany uses 'gcc -E -dD -p header.h'. Also, gcc errors are not shown to the user - I've fixed this yesterday in Git. You could try using the above gcc command to see if this is causing errors.
Also, Geany 0.21 uses -undef, which might cause errors on 64-bit targets. This is removed in Git.
