I have some problems in using [e/c]tags with Objective-C files on NeXT
computers. etags does not recognize Objective-C constructs. ctags recognize
some Objective-C constructs, in a typical NeXT way: you never know why.
Some of the problems I had are:
. If you use @class for some class A, it only finds the place to
where @class A is declared, not the place where @interface A is
defined.
. For methods, sometime it finds the method in the .h file, while
sometimes, it finds the method in the .m file.
. You cannot find an alternate definition of the tag in Edit.app by
Source command.
Generally, I prefer to use etags with Emacs. But unfortunately, my version
of etags does not support Objective-C constructs. So the question is: is there
a version of etags knowing Objective-C constructs in the net? or any other
advices regarding ctags on NeXT?
Any advice is appreciated.
