Re[1]: [cedet-semantic] Error in semantic completion

[Eric M. L. <er...@si...>]

Hi,

  If the "M-x bovinate" command reports back "nil", then it failed to
  identify any symbols.  If you instead use "C-u M-x bovinate", it
  will force a full parse.  If that also reports nil, then something
  else is wrong.  I tried your sample with the version of semantic in
  the cedet-1.0beta1.tar.gz file recently uploaded to the cedet
  project area, and everything worked as expected for me.  The file
  may have attempted a parse while you were typing, and the poor
  incremental parser in 1.4.4 failed recover properly.

  Also, to avoid the buffer that pops up with the tag dump, try
  "M-- M-x bovinate" instead.

  For larger projects, be sure to investigate the
  `semanticdb-project-roots' variable.

Good Luck
Eric
