If this shows up more than once, I apologize. Gmail is telling me it
didn't get sent (twice), and it doesn't show up on the mailing list
archive, though that may be due to transit delay.
I'm ran into hanging problems with the the following combination,
updated today:
cygwin 1.5.23-2
vim 7.0.122-1
mlcscope 14.1.8-2
The problem had to do with shelling out to build the cscope database
via "mlcscope -b -u *". I specified the files "*" because I had
Matlab files; Matlab is ont a recognized language, so the files would
not be acted on by default. I think the problem arose because "*"
also included the output file being built (cscope.out), so it
cscope.out kept get bigger as it analyzed itself. Narrowing the files
down to "*.m" restricted the files to Matlab files only, and bypassed
that hanging problem.
However, I get the following error trying to add the connection to
cscope.out:
cs_read_prompt EOF: No error
E609: Cscope error:
mlcscope: cannot read trailer offset from file cscope.out
The only reference I've found to it is
http://groups.google.ca/group/comp.editors/browse_frm/thread/2a614f2f0e87250e
I don't have cscope on my system, so that's not the explanation. I
also have cscopeprg=/usr/bin/mlcscope.
I'll be downloading cscope as my next step. Since I've gotten
vim/cscope to work on solaris before, I'm hopeful that it will be
straightforward.
I'm curious as to whether there has been any succcess or failures with
the current cygwin/vim/mlcscope combination, which will hint at
whether it is my setup or not.
Thanks.
Fred
