Re: [Anjuta-list] suggestion

OK - I figured out a way to do this without touching the code. Do this:

Go to the root directory of your project and type
$ HEADERS=`find . -name "*.h" -exec echo -n "{} " \;`
$ ctags --excmd=number --c-types=pcdgstu $HEADERS

This should create a file called 'tags'.
Then login as root and type:
$ python /usr/local/share/anjuta/tags2api.py tags 
>>/usr/local/share/anjuta/linux-gnome-c.api

Then restart anjuta. That's it.

I agree, however, that there should be a way to do this dynamically. Maybe 
the anjuta developers are working on it ? The relevant code seems to be this 
(aneditor.cxx line 1774)
	SString apifilename = props->GetNewExpand("api.", 
fileNameForExtension.c_str());
	if (apifilename.length()) {
		FILE *fp = fopen(apifilename.c_str(), "rb");
		if (fp) {
			fseek(fp, 0, SEEK_END);
			int len = ftell(fp);
			char *buffer = apis.Allocate(len);
			if (buffer) {
				fseek(fp, 0, SEEK_SET);
				fread(buffer, 1, len, fp);
				apis.SetFromAllocated();
			}
			fclose(fp);
