Package: exuberant-ctags
Version: 1:5.7-4
Severity: normal
When parsing a .h file with one simple function, the tags file
generated doesn't have any function tag.
Example:
---
one.h
void one(int a);
-----
I'm trying to generate a tag file from that .h but no tag is generated.
Thanks.
David.

ctags does not generate tags for function prototypes by default, only
for the actual function definitions. See the documentation for the
--<LANG>-kinds option in ctags(1), and:
$ ctags --list-kinds=c
c classes
d macro definitions
e enumerators (values inside an enumeration)
f function definitions
g enumeration names
l local variables [off]
m class, struct, and union members
n namespaces
p function prototypes [off]
s structure names
t typedefs
u union names
v variable definitions
x external and forward variable declarations [off]
Thus, if you use the option "--c-kinds=+p", it'll generate a tag for
your function prototype.
