Ctags usually "just works" without any fussing so I don't have much experience fixing ctags problems. I don't have enough information about your situation to make any further guesses about what might be wrong. > 2. At each time i opened my source code i need to execute ctags again ? No. You need to execute ctags again only after you have made a change to your source code. > 3. How Can I use ctags and cscope while I have already opened my file in vim. First, make sure that the working directory of the current vim window is the directory that should contain your tags and cscope.out files. If you started vim in that directory, and you haven't executed any :cd or :lcd commands, and 'autochdir' is off (the default), then any window in vim should be using the correct working directory. You can check with the following command: :pwd For ctags, simply execute the following command: :!ctags -R For cscope, execute the following two commands: :!cscope -b -R :cs add I think those last two commands are right. I haven't used cscope in years. I've been using GNU Global instead, and I have plugins that do a lot of stuff automatically so that I don't have to think about it. You can find out more about Vim's cscope commands here: :help cscope HTH, Gary -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
