Package: xemacs21-support
Version: 21.1.10-4
Attempting to use 'find-tag' fails with the error message "Bad TAGS
file" if the TAGS file being read includes other TAGS files.
I sure hope this isn't a duplicate bug report; I couldn't figure out how
(if there is a way) to view the bug reports that are no longer being
displayed on the bug report web page.
A TAGS file created with the etags -i option may look like this:
^L
config.h,418
#define TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME 14,445
#define PACKAGE 56,1501
#define VERSION 59,1556
^L
src/TAGS,include
^L
tests/TAGS,include
As soon as the 2nd ^L is processed, the error will occur. The reason is
that the regexp being used to match a valid file specification after the
^L expects a number after the comma, and does not accept the 'include'.
The regexp is defined in /usr/lib/xemacs-21.1.10/lisp/etags.el.gz, line
475, as:
(defconst tags-file-pattern "^\f\n\\(.+\\),[0-9]+\n")
defining it instead as:
(defconst tags-file-pattern
"^\f\n\\(.+\\),\\(\\([0-9]+\\)\\|include\\)\n")
would handle the include pattern as well.
The TAGS file that caused the problem was originally created as a result
of running 'make tags' on a Makefile built from automake/autoconf, so I
would think this would be a common problem.
I am running woody/testing, emacsen-common version 1.4.12, kernel 2.4.1,
on i386. Running 'etags -V' outputs "etags (GNU Emacs 21.1.10)".
Thanks,
=wl
