[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Sync ctags main part (#1263)

[Jiří Techet]

> In directiveDefine(): Why use a completely different signature collection logic than CTags'? I get that might be related to c.c's handling of it, but not sure how what affects what.

The difference is that in uctags the c.c parser collects the signature "manually" (its collection is spread across c.c and there are many calls of vStringPut (Signature, c)) while in our implementation signature collection is hidden from the parser inside lcpp.c and c.c just has to inform lcpp when to start and stop collecting. This is a bit nicer from the parser point of view because it means less lines in the parser itself.
