cscope-indexer(1) General Commands Manual cscope-indexer(1) NAME cscope-indexer - Script to index files for cscope SYNOPSIS cscope-indexer [-v] [-f database_file] [-i list_file] [-l] [-r] DESCRIPTION This script generates a list of files to index (cscope.out), which is then (optionally) used to generate a cscope database. You can use this script to just build a list of files, or it can be used to build a list and database. This script is not used to just build a database (skip- ping the list of files step), as this can be simply done by just call- ing "cscope -b". Normally, cscope will do its own indexing, but this script can be used to force indexing. This is useful if you need to recurse into subdi- rectories, or have many files to index (you can run this script from a cron job, during the night). It is especially useful for large projects, which can contstantly have source files added and deleted; by using this script, the changing sources files are automatically han- dled. Currently, any paths containing "/CVS/" or "/RCS/" are stripped out (ignored). OPTIONS -f database_file Specifies the cscope database file (default: cscope.out). -i list_file Specifies the name of the file into which the list of files to index is placed (default: cscope.files). -l Suppress the generation/updating of the cscope database file. Only a list of files is generated. -r Recurse into subdirectories to locate files to index. Without this option, only the current directory is searched. -v Be verbose. Output simple progress messages.
