Hi,
I have a backlog of email, and am answering in reverse chronological
order it seems. :)
GNU Global is most useful via the use of the 'symref' commands, such
as:
M-x semantic-symref
or
M-x semantic-symref-symbol
The use of these is for finding references to a particular symbol.
Global will also work as a databasebackend as you have indicated below.
The use here is a bit more transparent, as symbols in a global namespace
are now available to Semantic when looking up symbols. If you use C++,
this is less useful if most of your access is through namespaces or
structure dereferencing.
