How to debug?

[dufferzafar]

The extension isn't working. When i select the reindex command. The status bar shows Ctags Companion: reindexing <project name> but nothing actually happens.

Go to symbol in file, Go to symbol in Workspace, Go to definition, nothing works!

How can I debug this further?

Hello @dufferzafar . Is the .vscode/.tags file present?

I know this is confusing but are you using the "reindex" command or the "rebuild ctags" task?

Reindex

This only reindexes an existing ctags file. So if it is not present, nothing gets indexed.

Rebuild

This will generate the ctags file and index it.
