Ycm has a option to get tags from the tagfile that has this info. Sadly exu-ctags doesn't get well with overloaded methods, but maybe ycm can get the info and improve.

News on this? It makes the Goto command almost useless because many times you arrive at some point where you can't go anywhere :(

@ih4cku @MaikoID @ret2libc the issue is ok ? in my c++ project, cannot jump to definition； RuntimeError: Can't jump to definition. log： 142 2017-06-14 18:08:11,518 - INFO - Received command request 143 Traceback (most recent call last): 144 File "/root/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/third_party/bottle/bottle.py", line 861, in _handle 145 return route.call(args) 146 File "/root/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/third_party/bottle/bottle.py", line 1734, in wrapper 147 rv = callback(*a, *ka) 148 File "/root/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/ycmd/../ycmd/watchdog_plugin.py", line 109, in wrapper 149 return callback( args, kwargs ) 150 File "/root/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/ycmd/../ycmd/hmac_plugin.py", line 72, in wrapper 151 body = callback( *args, **kwargs ) 152 File "/root/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/ycmd/../ycmd/handlers.py", line 83, in RunCompleterCommand 153 request_data ) ) 154 File "/root/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/ycmd/../ycmd/completers/completer.py", line 336, in OnUserCommand 155 return command( self, request_data, arguments[ 1: ] ) 156 File "/root/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/ycmd/../ycmd/completers/cpp/clang_completer.py", line 121, in 157 self._GoToDefinition( request_data ) ), 158 File "/root/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/ycmd/../ycmd/completers/cpp/clang_completer.py", line 176, in _GoToDefinition 159 raise RuntimeError( 'Can't jump to definition.' ) 160 RuntimeError: Can't jump to definition.

So exu-ctags isn't cool, but is there a way to make GoTo work with cscopetag instead?

Currently, I am using cscope's cs find s for finding symbol definitions and YCM's GoTo for jumping to header files.

But I would be glad if I can consolidate both of these features with YCM's GoTo
