Re: question about lua source navigation

thanks Gary. Then I show the code here:

the generated tag has a line looks like this:

TaskHandler.prizeTask .\init\taskHandler.lua /^function TaskHandler.prizeTask(plr, task)$/;" f

and I have a function:

function Task:succeed()

debug_log("Task:succeed")

self.isSucceed = true

TaskHandler.prizeTask(self.owner, self)

self:eventOnSuccess()

if self.spanTimerId > 0 then self:clearSpanTimer() end

self.owner:addFinishedTask(self)

if self.entry.type == taskType.TASK_TYPE_MAIN then

self.owner:setSaveRecord("MainTask", self:getId(), 0)

else

end

if self.entry.nexttask ~= nil and self.entry.nexttask ~= 0 then

debug_log("self.owner:addTask")

self.owner:addTask(self.entry.nexttask)

end

end

 

in the file task.lua in the subdirectory of where the tags file lies. While my cursor on "prizeTask", I press Ctrl-], only to find it shows me an error that can't find the tag: prizeTask. So it is.

I don't know what else might be available for navigating Lua, but
the ctags web page at SourceForge says that it understands Lua, and
you write that the tags appear fine, so I would suggest that you
find out why your Lua tags aren't working as you expect and fix that
problem.  If you post a short file containing Lua code and explain
what you do and what happens when you try to jump to a tag in that
code, we might be able to spot the problem and give you a solution.

Gary
