Re: Feature request: file list

[Marcus Harnisch]

Hi Shigio

That would definitely be a good thing to have (including the corresponding short options). In my case an additional options filter will still be necessary so that --single-update won't trigger rebuilding the file list.

Thanks,

Marcus

I understood.
How about skipping the hook when the following options are specified?
These are informational options only.

        --help, --dump, --config, --version

If there is no objection, I will make that change.

Thanks,
Shigio

This in turn invokes gtags_hook, too. I am already maintaining a list of options in my gtags_hook that should bypass generating the file list, e.g --help, --dump, --single-update. Now adding --config.
