<p>The multi-line comment within a macro means that <code>int y</code> (and all code following it) doesn't get parsed by ctags:</p>

<p>Removing the comment restores parsing. The macro is actually from Geany's sidebar.c, but <a class="issue-link js-issue-link" data-error-text="Failed to load issue title" data-id="504099742" data-permission-text="Issue title is private" data-url="https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/2345" data-hovercard-type="pull_request" data-hovercard-url="/geany/geany/pull/2345/hovercard" href="https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/2345">#2345</a> gets rid of it.</p>
