The final solution for me:
I put all the directories into a file called sdir.txt, put this file under
the same folder of the source files,
add this function to vimrc file:
""Find the string user input in different folder
""put the search directories in sdir.txt file,
""under the same dir of the source code
nmap <F1> :call <SID>Searchwordgl()<cr>
function s:Searchwordgl()
let searchstring = expand("<cword>") "search string under the cursor
let searchdirlist = readfile('sdir.txt','',6) "read directories into
list
let searchdir = join(searchdirlist) " join the list into
string
if searchstring != ""
execute "vimgrep " searchstring searchdir
endif
endfunction
