Hi,

  CEDET and ECB are independent.  CEDET does not need ECB.  ECB uses
the CEDET library.

  Follow the CEDET installation instructions, then follow the ECB
instructions, and you will be in good shape.

Hello together,

The Idle function does the following:
-If it can, it does smart-completion.
-If it knows, it shows me some information about the tag where I am.

Very Cool! But it annoys me, that I have to wait for it. It would be
much nicer, if I can start the described process by hand. I can start
smart-completion by hand, but not as described above.
Can I somehow do it? Could I somehow start the idle function by hand?


Thanks!
Nathan

One fun function is `semantic-complete-self-insert' which you can bind
to '.' to force completion when you press .

For the summary, the key routine is `semantic-ia-show-summary' which
is a simplified version of what the idle summary shows.   Idle summary
shows keywords, and if the analyzer gets lost, does a brute force
search through the tag database.  The ia routine just shows a summary
of what the analyzer can find.  You can bind that to a key.

Extending the ia function to include keywords or other answers would
be a fairly easy task if someone wanted to take it on.

I just checked in some minor changes to the analyzer and semantic-ia
to make them more consistent with the idle summary, but that isn't
necessary to get the functionality I talked about above.

Good Luck
Eric

Hello,

In some recent mail, Eric mentioned the function
"semantic-complete-self-insert". I tried this function, but if I run it
the only thing happening is that some strange character (emacs displays
it as ^M) gets inserted at the current point.

I am not using "semantic-complete-self-insert", I just thought I mention it.

Greetings,
Nathan

Hi,

  My apologies for being vague.  The self-insert command only really
works if you do this:

(define-key c-mode-map "." 'semantic-complete-self-insert)

  or whichever major-mode you are using.  It works when you then press
".", and also goes into completion mode.  This can be pretty neat, or
very annoying.  Visual Studio has a similar behavior.

 If you just do:

M-x semantic-complete-self-insert RET

then it inserts RET (or ^M) and tries to complete whatever is after
the ^M, which would be nothing.

Enjoy
Eric
