[Geany] failing to generate tag file

[Rodrigo Canellas]

Enrico,

I downloaded the subversion version, as explained in
'http://geany.uvena.de/Download/SVN', and the tags file is generated.

I type 'geany' in a 'xterm' window and this report is printed (among
other information):

"
** INFO: Loaded /home/rcanellas/.geany/tags/certisign.cpp.tags (C++).
** INFO: Loaded /home/rcanellas/.geany/tags/certisign.h.tags (C).
"

So the files are being automatically loaded, as I moved them to '~/.geany/tags'.

However, when I open one of the '.cpp' or '.h' used to generate the
tags files, and try to 'Go to tag definition' or 'Go to tag
declaration',   'geany' shows "Advanced declaration <symnol-name> not
found" (actually the message is displayed in Portuguese, so I
translated it).

I generated the 'certisign.h.tags' like this:

- 'cd' to the directory of the header files
- typed 'CFLAGS=-I$PWD; geany -g -P certisign.h.tags $PWD/*.h'
- moved the certisign.h.tags file to '~/.geany/tags'

I also tried  'CFLAGS=-I./; geany -g -P certisign.h.tags *.h', with
the same results.

I did the same for the 'certisign.cpp.tags' file.


Can you see what I am doing wrong?


Thanks a lot,
   Rodrigo
