GLOBAL history
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
version 1.0 Initial version [21-Apr-96]
|
|
|
|
global, gtags, btreeop, extended ctags.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to Sadaichi Hayashida. Generating relative path is his idea.
|
|
|
|
version 1.1 Only bugfix [2-May-96]
|
|
|
|
[fixed bug]
|
|
global - makes corrupted path name by conversion error.
|
|
- description of exit code in online manual is mistaken.
|
|
btreeop - cannot treat a long line over BUFSIZ. With the result
|
|
that gtags fails.
|
|
extended ctags - when using -r option, considers a reserved word
|
|
to be a function name. With the result that GRTAGS becomes
|
|
too large.
|
|
|
|
version 1.2 Support of 1.34 nvi [7-Jun-96]
|
|
|
|
[changed]
|
|
extended ctags
|
|
- change to use bsearch(3) for searching reserved words.
|
|
- change to consider '__P' as a reserved word.
|
|
- unify the original patch (included in version1.0) and
|
|
the bugfix patch (included in version1.1).
|
|
[added]
|
|
extended vi
|
|
- VI tag support.
|
|
|
|
version 1.3 Support of GTAGSLIBPATH [28-Jul-96]
|
|
|
|
[changed]
|
|
global - search not only in a source tree but also in library paths
|
|
specified by environment variable GTAGSLIBPATH.
|
|
extended ctags
|
|
- change print format a little when -x option
|
|
|
|
version 1.4 Support of yacc source file [26-Oct-96]
|
|
|
|
[changed]
|
|
extended ctags
|
|
- support of yacc source file.
|
|
- this version of ctags is NOT COMPATIBLE with original one.
|
|
* search all part of a yacc file for C functions.
|
|
(original only 3rd part)
|
|
* no longer considers a yacc rule to be an object.
|
|
|
|
version 1.5 Hypertext generator [12-Dec-96]
|
|
|
|
[fixed bug]
|
|
gtags - treat 'y.tab.c' as a C source.(we should treat only *.y)
|
|
extended vi
|
|
- free stack memory. free(3) in FreeBSD 2.1.5R seems to
|
|
show a warning message when receive stack address.
|
|
So it spoils the screen.
|
|
[added]
|
|
htags - new command (hypertext generator of C source file)
|
|
gtags - error check code added.
|
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
- replace 'sort -u' with 'sort | uniq' for compatibility reason.
|
|
[fixed bug]
|
|
global - makes illegal path name when using GTAGSLIBPATH.
|
|
gtags - error message mistaken.
|
|
[added]
|
|
nvi-1.76.diff
|
|
- patch for nvi 1.76 to make extended vi.
|
|
gctags - this is the same with extended ctags in older version.
|
|
now GLOBAL includes BSD ctags in it. so no longer has
|
|
patch file (ctags.diff).
|
|
(I brought original ctags from FreeBSD 2.1.5R)
|
|
|
|
Thanks to
|

|
|
[fixed bug]
|
|
htags - generate path name including '¶m'. (It means special
|
|
charactor in hypertertext.)
|
|
So, changed internal separator from '&' to '|'.

|
|
ALTENTRY() from *.[sS] files.
