description

repo: https://github.com/MiguelBarro/cpptags The default builtin 'tagfunc' is not suitable for modern C++, lacks support for: namespaces and classes, function and methods signatures, template parameters and specialization. The new ctags releases provide support for the above features and more, see: https://docs.ctags.io/en/latest/parser-cxx.html This filetype-plugin will automatically set up a new 'tagfunc' that will profit from the new ctags fields.

install details

An obvious precondition is having ctags installed. Is available on the most popular package managers: In order to install ctags I advise: • Windows. Use winget:     > winget install UniversalCtags.Ctags • Ubuntu. Use apt:     $ sudo apt install universal-ctags • MacOs. Use brew:     $ brew install universal-ctags This plugin can be installed using any popular plugin manager (vim-plug, Vundle, etc...) but vim plugin integration is extremely easy in later releases (version 8.0 introduced package support): • A vimball is distributed by www.vim.org. Installation is as easy as   sourcing the vimball file:     :source cpptags.vmb    so is uninstall:     :RmVimball cpptags.vmb • The github repo can be cloned directly into the $VIMRUNTIME/pack directory   as explained in matchit-install. Though using this approach many useless   files will be installed too. • Use getscript plugin to automatically download an update it. Update the   local $VIMRUNTIME/GetLatest/GetLatestVimScripts.dat adding a line   associated with this plugin. Once installed the vim's filetype plugins must be enabled (see help :filetype-plugin-on):     :filetype plugin on is adviceable to introduce this into the .vimrc if not there already.
