Re: [Ctags] Ctags-5.0pre3 available

[Kristopher R. B. <bus...@mc...>]

Under certain circumstances, the relative path generated is quite wrong.

I want to create a tags file located in:

C:/develop/ref/TAGS

and a source file located in 

C:/develop/src/structs/impls/tr/tr.c

The generated tag path is

../../../../../tr.c,1270

instead of 

../src/structs/impls/tr/tr.c

The distribution below was installed via configure then make
and a symbolic link to ctags.exe was named etags.exe  My machine
is running Win2000 with Cygwin, compiler used is gcc.

I executed:

etags -a -f C:/develop/ref/TAGS tr.c

However, if I specify the tagsfile as /cygdrive/c/develop/ref/TAGS
instead of C:... everything works properly.

I assume that when you fetch the path to the file to be tagged, Cygwin
returns the path in /cygdrive form and the confusion comes from the
C:/ form entered for the full path to the TAGS file.  I assume that
you are fetching the complete path for the TAGS file in all cases, so
it is surprising that the form would be a problem.  Ideas?
