Tag handling

A tag represents an individual item found in a buffer, such as a function or variable. Tag handling is handled in several source files.

semantic/tag.el

Basic tag creation, queries, cloning, binding, and unbinding.

semantic/tag-write.el

Write a tag or tag list to a stream. These routines are used by semanticdb-file.el when saving a list of tags.

semantic/tag-file.el

Files associated with tags. Goto-tag, file for include, and file for a prototype.

semantic/tag-ls.el

Language dependent features of a tag, such as parent calculation, slot protection, and other states like abstract, virtual, static, and leaf.

semantic/dep.el

Include file handling. Contains the include path concepts, and routines for looking up file names in the include path.

semantic/format.el

Convert a tag into a nicely formatted and colored string. Use semantic-test-all-format-tag-functions to test different output options.

semantic/find.el

Find tags matching different conditions in a tag table. These routines are used by semanticdb-find.el once the database has been converted into a simpler tag table.

semantic/sort.el

Sorting lists of tags in different ways. Includes sorting a plain list of tags forward or backward. Includes binning tags based on attributes (bucketize), and tag adoption for multiple references to the same thing.

semantic/doc.el

Capture documentation comments from near a tag.
