KeyBinding:

Setting:

  • gtags-search.autoUpdate: Whether Gtags should update automatically or not when saving file. (default: false)
  • gtags-search.timeOutInMs:
  • gtags-search.MaxShowNum:

Tips: if your gtags files are on HDD, case-ignore search may be slow, so if you have enouth memory space, you can copy GPATH, GTAGS, GRTAGS to /dev/shm, then create soft link in the workspace.

note that the default space of /dev/shm is half total phsical memory, if your tag file too big to copy, you can use command bellow to resolve.

mount -o size=1500M -o nr_innodes=1000000 -o noatime,nodiratime -o remount /dev/shm

Requirements

  1. please install GNU global and generate gtags files correctly.
  2. please open files in workspace.
  3. chinese characters CANNOT be included in the workspace path.
