[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Use the official 'libreadtags' library from ctags for parsing ctags files (PR #3049)

[Jiří Techet]

> While you improve the tag loading, would it be possible to also add support for function arguments? If I look correctly, those are not currently processed from ctags, but Geany uses them when they're in tagmanager format.

It is the "signature" field and it was processed before and should be handled by this patch too. I tried to go through all the flags ctags offers and use all the information that might be useful for Geany. What was missing before was the "typeref" field that provides variable types and function return values and this is now included in this patch.
