Now that all my other doubts are cleared and I have a 75% working setup, I am back to the definition search. Clearly I've got file-path search, and symbol-reference search. But not definition search. So what I want to know is , if there is a switch I forgot to set on the invocation of ctags, or is there something else wrong? And also, how can I confirm the presence of definition data in the generated indexes? In other words, this could be an opengrok problem, using the index, or it could be a ctags problem, building the index. How can I know where the problem lies?

I have already checked the help but need more clarification. symbol - I borrow the definition from source(which is not that generic, but generic enough ;) ): http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/opengrok/trunk/src/org/opensolaris/opengrok/analysis/JFlexXref.java#323 now an explanation: it's basically a reference - so it can point to a previous declaration, or basically any other occurrence of the same token marked as symbol (which can create a bit of ambiguity, but until we improve it people just have to recognize where the search comes from) - in ideal case it would behave like navigating in some IDE, but our analyzers could be improved in this regard (one of the features people want is a caller/callee functionality - which is basically narrowing down current ref(symbol) searches for one of the use cases) obviously this can be improved and if you want, feel free to checkout the code and help with this effort, I think a lot of people will be happy if it will be done in a convenient and simple way xing the fingers L Thanks a lot for helping me out.

But this is not how it is working for me. I have a .java file with a class xyz defined in it. When I click on xyz , it gets me back to the search page with no results for definition search At the bottom I see : Did you mean (for project) : xyz yz... Why doesn't it jump back to the same .java file.
