Support multiple tags file? #3

Closed AmaiKinono closed 4 years ago

AmaiKinono commented 4 years ago

Now company-ctags finds TAGS file automatically based on company-ctags-tags-file-name, and seems I can add another one using tags-file-name. But this may be not enough. Think about these situations:

  1. The TAGS file may not exist in the project directory. Some people may put all their TAGS files together for easy management.
  2. We may want to create TAGS files for system header files or external dependencies, and for one project, there may be more than 1 of these TAGS files.

I'd suggest we have a variable to put a list of absolute paths of TAGS files, and an option to control whether automatically find TAGS file or not. By customize these variables in .dir-locals.el, the user should be able to handle any situation.

Yeah, let me think about this.

This makes company-ctags can't do completion at all. It's because L342:

(extra-tags-files (ff-list-replace-env-vars company-ctags-extra-tags-files))

find-file needs to be required to make this work.

This works. I'll close the issue then.
