*cscope* *Cscope*
|
|
This document explains how to use Vim's cscope interface.
|
|
|
|
Cscope is a tool like ctags, but think of it as ctags on steroids since it
|
|
does a lot more than what ctags provides. In Vim, jumping to a result from
|
|
a cscope query is just like jumping to any tag; it is saved on the tag stack
|
|
so that with the right keyboard mappings, you can jump back and forth between
|
|
functions as you normally would with |tags|.

|
|
1. Cscope introduction *cscope-intro*
|
|
|
|
The following text is taken from a version of the cscope man page:
|
|
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
Cscope is an interactive screen-oriented tool that helps you:
|
|
|
|
Learn how a C program works without endless flipping through a thick
|
|
listing.
|
|
|
|
Locate the section of code to change to fix a bug without having to
|
|
learn the entire program.
|
|
|
|
Examine the effect of a proposed change such as adding a value to an
|
|
enum variable.
|
|
|
|
Verify that a change has been made in all source files such as adding
|
|
an argument to an existing function.
|
|
|
|
Rename a global variable in all source files.
|
|
|
|
Change a constant to a preprocessor symbol in selected lines of files.
|
|
|
|
It is designed to answer questions like:
|
|
Where is this symbol used?
|
|
Where is it defined?
|
|
Where did this variable get its value?
|
|
What is this global symbol's definition?
|
|
Where is this function in the source files?
|
|
What functions call this function?
|
|
What functions are called by this function?
|
|
Where does the message "out of space" come from?
|
|
Where is this source file in the directory structure?
|
|
What files include this header file?
|
|
|
|
Cscope answers these questions from a symbol database that it builds the
|
|
first time it is used on the source files. On a subsequent call, cscope
|
|
rebuilds the database only if a source file has changed or the list of
|
|
source files is different. When the database is rebuilt the data for the
|
|
unchanged files is copied from the old database, which makes rebuilding
|
|
much faster than the initial build.
|
|
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
When cscope is normally invoked, you will get a full-screen selection
|
|
screen allowing you to make a query for one of the above questions.
|
|
However, once a match is found to your query and you have entered your
|
|
text editor to edit the source file containing match, you cannot simply
|
|
jump from tag to tag as you normally would with vi's Ctrl-] or :tag
|
|
command.
|
|
|
|
Vim's cscope interface is done by invoking cscope with its line-oriented
|
|
interface, and then parsing the output returned from a query. The end
|
|
result is that cscope query results become just like regular tags, so
|
|
you can jump to them just like you do with normal tags (Ctrl-] or :tag)
|
|
and then go back by popping off the tagstack with Ctrl-T. (Please note
|
|
however, that you don't actually jump to a cscope tag simply by doing
|
|
Ctrl-] or :tag without remapping these commands or setting an option.
|
|
See the remaining sections on how the cscope interface works and for
|
|
suggested use.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
2. Cscope related commands *cscope-commands*
|
|
|
|
*:cscope* *:cs* *:scs* *:scscope* *E259* *E262* *E561* *E560*
|
|
All cscope commands are accessed through suboptions to the main cscope
|
|
command ":cscope". The shortest abbreviation is ":cs". The ":scscope"
|
|
command does the same and also splits the window (short: "scs").
|
|
|
|
The available subcommands are:
|
|
|
|
*E563* *E564* *E566* *E568* *E569* *E622* *E623*
|
|
*E625* *E626* *E609*
|
|
add : Add a new cscope database/connection.
|
|
|
|
USAGE :cs add {file|dir} [pre-path] [flags]
|
|
|
|
[pre-path] is the pathname used with the -P command to cscope.
|
|
|
|
[flags] are any additional flags you want to pass to cscope.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES >
|
|
:cscope add /usr/local/cdb/cscope.out
|
|
:cscope add /projects/vim/cscope.out /usr/local/vim
|
|
:cscope add cscope.out /usr/local/vim -C
|
|
<
|
|
*cscope-find* *cs-find* *E567*
|
|
find : Query cscope. All cscope query options are available
|
|
except option #5 ("Change this grep pattern").
|
|
|
|
USAGE :cs find {querytype} {name}
|
|
|
|
{querytype} corresponds to the actual cscope line
|
|
interface numbers as well as default nvi commands:
|
|
|
|
0 or s: Find this C symbol
|
|
1 or g: Find this definition
|
|
2 or d: Find functions called by this function
|
|
3 or c: Find functions calling this function
|
|
4 or t: Find this text string
|
|
6 or e: Find this egrep pattern
|
|
7 or f: Find this file
|
|
8 or i: Find files #including this file
|
|
|
|
For all types, except 4 and 6, leading white space for {name} is
|
|
removed. For 4 and 6 there is exactly one space between {querytype}
|
|
and {name}. Further white space is included in {name}.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES >
|
|
:cscope find c vim_free
|
|
:cscope find 3 vim_free
|
|
<
|
|
These two examples perform the same query: functions calling
|
|
"vim_free". >
|
|
|
|
:cscope find t initOnce
|
|
:cscope find t initOnce
|
|
<
|
|
The first one searches for the text "initOnce", the second one for
|
|
" initOnce". >
|
|
|
|
:cscope find 0 DEFAULT_TERM
|
|
<
|
|
Executing this example on the source code for Vim 5.1 produces the
|
|
following output:
|
|
|
|
Cscope tag: DEFAULT_TERM
|
|
# line filename / context / line

|
|
term = DEFAULT_TERM;
|
|
12 1459 vim-5.1-gtk/src/term.c <<set_termname>>
|
|
if (STRCMP(term, DEFAULT_TERM))
|
|
13 1826 vim-5.1-gtk/src/term.c <<termcapinit>>
|
|
term = DEFAULT_TERM;
|
|
14 1833 vim-5.1-gtk/src/term.c <<termcapinit>>
|
|
term = DEFAULT_TERM;
|
|
15 3635 vim-5.1-gtk/src/term.c <<update_tcap>>
|
|
p = find_builtin_term(DEFAULT_TERM);
|
|
Enter nr of choice (<CR> to abort):
|
|
|
|
The output shows several pieces of information:
|
|
1. The tag number (there are 15 in this example).
|
|
2. The line number where the tag occurs.
|
|
3. The filename where the tag occurs.
|
|
4. The context of the tag (e.g., global, or the function name).
|
|
5. The line from the file itself.
|
|
|
|
help : Show a brief synopsis.
|
|
|
|
USAGE :cs help
|
|
|
|
*E261*
|
|
kill : Kill a cscope connection (or kill all cscope connections).
|
|
|
|
USAGE :cs kill {num|partial_name}
|
|
|
|
To kill a cscope connection, the connection number or a partial
|
|
name must be specified. The partial name is simply any part of
|
|
the pathname of the cscope database. Kill a cscope connection
|
|
using the partial name with caution!
|
|
|
|
If the specified connection number is -1, then _ALL_ cscope
|
|
connections will be killed.
|
|
|
|
reset : Reinit all cscope connections.
|
|
|
|
USAGE :cs reset
|
|
|
|
show : Show cscope connections.
|
|
|
|
USAGE :cs show
|
|
|
|
*:lcscope* *:lcs*
|
|
This command is same as the ":cscope" command, except when the
|
|
'cscopequickfix' option is set, the location list for the current window is
|
|
used instead of the quickfix list to show the cscope results.
|
|
|
|
*:cstag* *E257* *E562*
|
|
If you use cscope as well as ctags, |:cstag| allows you to search one or
|
|
the other before making a jump. For example, you can choose to first
|
|
search your cscope database(s) for a match, and if one is not found, then
|
|
your tags file(s) will be searched. The order in which this happens
|
|
is determined by the value of |csto|. See |cscope-options| for more
|
|
details.
|
|
|
|
|:cstag| performs the equivalent of ":cs find g" on the identifier when
|
|
searching through the cscope database(s).
|
|
|
|
|:cstag| performs the equivalent of |:tjump| on the identifier when searching
|
|
through your tags file(s).
|
|
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
3. Cscope options *cscope-options*
|
|
|
|
Use the |:set| command to set all cscope options. Ideally, you would do
|
|
this in one of your startup files (e.g., vimrc). Some cscope related
|
|
variables are only valid within |init.vim|. Setting them after vim has
|
|
started will have no effect!
|
|
|
|
*cscopeprg* *csprg*
|
|
'cscopeprg' specifies the command to execute cscope. The default is
|
|
"cscope". For example: >
|
|
:set csprg=/usr/local/bin/cscope
|
|
<
|
|
*cscopequickfix* *csqf* *E469*
|
|
{not available when compiled without the |+quickfix| feature}
|
|
'cscopequickfix' specifies whether to use quickfix window to show cscope
|
|
results. This is a list of comma-separated values. Each item consists of
|
|
|cscope-find| command (s, g, d, c, t, e, f or i) and flag (+, - or 0).
|
|
'+' indicates that results must be appended to quickfix window,
|
|
'-' implies previous results clearance, '0' or command absence - don't use
|
|
quickfix. Search is performed from start until first command occurrence.
|
|
The default value is "" (don't use quickfix anyway). The following value
|
|
seems to be useful: >
|
|
:set cscopequickfix=s-,c-,d-,i-,t-,e-
|
|
<
|
|
*cscopetag* *cst*
|
|
If 'cscopetag' is set, the commands ":tag" and CTRL-] as well as "vim -t"
|
|
will always use |:cstag| instead of the default :tag behavior. Effectively,
|
|
by setting 'cst', you will always search your cscope databases as well as
|
|
your tag files. The default is off. Examples: >
|
|
:set cst
|
|
:set nocst
|
|
<
|
|
*cscoperelative* *csre*
|
|
If 'cscoperelative' is set, then in absence of a prefix given to cscope
|
|
(prefix is the argument of -P option of cscope), basename of cscope.out
|
|
location (usually the project root directory) will be used as the prefix
|
|
to construct an absolute path. The default is off. Note: This option is
|
|
only effective when cscope (cscopeprg) is initialized without a prefix
|
|
path (-P). Examples: >
|
|
:set csre
|
|
:set nocsre
|
|
<
|
|
*cscopetagorder* *csto*
|
|
The value of 'csto' determines the order in which |:cstag| performs a search.
|
|
If 'csto' is set to zero, cscope database(s) are searched first, followed
|
|
by tag file(s) if cscope did not return any matches. If 'csto' is set to
|
|
one, tag file(s) are searched before cscope database(s). The default is zero.
|
|
Examples: >
|
|
:set csto=0
|
|
:set csto=1
|
|
<
|
|
*cscopeverbose* *csverb*
|
|
If 'cscopeverbose' is not set (the default), messages will not be printed
|
|
indicating success or failure when adding a cscope database. Ideally, you
|
|
should reset this option in your |init.vim| before adding any cscope
|
|
databases, and after adding them, set it. From then on, when you add more
|
|
databases within Vim, you will get a (hopefully) useful message should the
|
|
database fail to be added. Examples: >
|
|
:set csverb
|
|
:set nocsverb
|
|
<
|
|
*cscopepathcomp* *cspc*
|
|
The value of 'cspc' determines how many components of a file's path to
|
|
display. With the default value of zero the entire path will be displayed.
|
|
The value one will display only the filename with no path. Other values
|
|
display that many components. For example: >
|
|
:set cspc=3
|
|
will display the last 3 components of the file's path, including the file
|
|
name itself.
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
4. How to use cscope in Vim *cscope-howtouse*
|
|
|
|
The first thing you need to do is to build a cscope database for your
|
|
source files. For the most basic case, simply do "cscope -b". Please
|
|
refer to the cscope man page for more details.
|
|
|
|
Assuming you have a cscope database, you need to "add" the database to Vim.
|
|
This establishes a cscope "connection" and makes it available for Vim to use.
|
|
You can do this in your vimrc file, or you can do it manually after starting
|
|
vim. For example, to add the cscope database "cscope.out", you would do:
|
|
|
|
:cs add cscope.out
|
|
|
|
You can double-check the result of this by executing ":cs show". This will
|
|
produce output which looks like this:
|
|
|
|
# pid database name prepend path
|
|
0 28806 cscope.out <none>
|
|
|
|
Note:
|
|
Because of the Microsoft RTL limitations, Win32 version shows 0 instead
|
|
of the real pid.
|
|
|
|
Once a cscope connection is established, you can make queries to cscope and
|
|
the results will be printed to you. Queries are made using the command
|
|
":cs find". For example:
|
|
|
|
:cs find g ALIGN_SIZE
|
|
|
|
This can get a little cumbersome since one ends up doing a significant
|
|
amount of typing. Fortunately, there are ways around this by mapping
|
|
shortcut keys. See |cscope-suggestions| for suggested usage.
|
|
|
|
If the results return only one match, you will automatically be taken to it.
|
|
If there is more than one match, you will be given a selection screen to pick
|
|
the match you want to go to. After you have jumped to the new location,
|
|
simply hit Ctrl-T to get back to the previous one.
|
|
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
5. Limitations *cscope-limitations*
|
|
|
|
Cscope support for Vim is only available on systems that support these four
|
|
system calls: fork(), pipe(), execl(), waitpid(). This means it is mostly
|
|
limited to Unix systems.
|
|
|
|
Additionally Cscope support works for Win32. For more information and a
|
|
cscope version for Win32 see:
|
|
|
|
http://iamphet.nm.ru/cscope/index.html
|
|
|
|
Hard-coded limitation: doing a |:tjump| when |:cstag| searches the tag files
|
|
is not configurable (e.g., you can't do a tselect instead).
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
6. Suggested usage *cscope-suggestions*
|
|
|
|
Put these entries in your vimrc (adjust the pathname accordingly to your
|
|
setup): >
|
|
|
|
if has("cscope")
|
|
set csprg=/usr/local/bin/cscope
|
|
set csto=0
|
|
set cst
|
|
set nocsverb
|
|
" add any database in current directory
|
|
if filereadable("cscope.out")
|
|
cs add cscope.out
|
|
" else add database pointed to by environment
|
|
elseif $CSCOPE_DB != ""
|
|
cs add $CSCOPE_DB
|
|
endif
|
|
set csverb
|
|
endif
|
|
|
|
By setting 'cscopetag', we have effectively replaced all instances of the :tag
|
|
command with :cstag. This includes :tag, Ctrl-], and "vim -t". In doing
|
|
this, the regular tag command not only searches your ctags generated tag
|
|
files, but your cscope databases as well.
|
|
|
|
Some users may want to keep the regular tag behavior and have a different
|
|
shortcut to access :cstag. For example, one could map Ctrl-_ (underscore)
|
|
to :cstag with the following command: >
|
|
|
|
map <C-_> :cstag <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
|
|
A couple of very commonly used cscope queries (using ":cs find") is to
|
|
find all functions calling a certain function and to find all occurrences
|
|
of a particular C symbol. To do this, you can use these mappings as an
|
|
example: >
|
|
|
|
map g<C-]> :cs find 3 <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
map g<C-\> :cs find 0 <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
|
|
These mappings for Ctrl-] (right bracket) and Ctrl-\ (backslash) allow you to
|
|
place your cursor over the function name or C symbol and quickly query cscope
|
|
for any matches.
|
|
|
|
Or you may use the following scheme, inspired by Vim/Cscope tutorial from
|
|
Cscope Home Page (http://cscope.sourceforge.net/): >
|
|
|
|
nmap <C-_>s :cs find s <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-_>g :cs find g <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-_>c :cs find c <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-_>t :cs find t <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-_>e :cs find e <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-_>f :cs find f <C-R>=expand("<cfile>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-_>i :cs find i ^<C-R>=expand("<cfile>")<CR>$<CR>
|
|
nmap <C-_>d :cs find d <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
|
|
" Using 'CTRL-spacebar' then a search type makes the vim window
|
|
" split horizontally, with search result displayed in
|
|
" the new window.
|
|
|
|
nmap <C-Space>s :scs find s <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-Space>g :scs find g <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-Space>c :scs find c <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-Space>t :scs find t <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-Space>e :scs find e <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-Space>f :scs find f <C-R>=expand("<cfile>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-Space>i :scs find i ^<C-R>=expand("<cfile>")<CR>$<CR>
|
|
nmap <C-Space>d :scs find d <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
|
|
" Hitting CTRL-space *twice* before the search type does a vertical
|
|
" split instead of a horizontal one
|
|
|
|
nmap <C-Space><C-Space>s
|
|
\:vert scs find s <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-Space><C-Space>g
|
|
\:vert scs find g <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-Space><C-Space>c
|
|
\:vert scs find c <C-R>=expand("<cword>")<CR><CR>
|
|
nmap <C-Space><C-Space>t

7. Cscope availability and information *cscope-info*
|
|
|
|
If you do not already have cscope (it did not come with your compiler
|
|
license or OS distribution), then you can download it for free from:
|
|
http://cscope.sourceforge.net/
|
|
This is released by SCO under the BSD license.
|
|
|
|
If you want a newer version of cscope, you will probably have to buy it.
|
|
According to the (old) nvi documentation:
|
|
|
|
You can buy version 13.3 source with an unrestricted license
|
|
for $400 from AT&T Software Solutions by calling +1-800-462-8146.
|
|
|
|
Also you can download cscope 13.x and mlcscope 14.x (multi-lingual cscope
|
|
which supports C, C++, Java, lex, yacc, breakpoint listing, Ingres, and SDL)
|
|
from World-Wide Exptools Open Source packages page:
|
|
http://www.bell-labs.com/project/wwexptools/packages.html
|
|
|
|
In Solaris 2.x, if you have the C compiler license, you will also have
|
|
cscope. Both are usually located under /opt/SUNWspro/bin
|
|
|
|
SGI developers can also get it. Search for Cscope on this page:
|
|
http://freeware.sgi.com/index-by-alpha.html
|
|
https://toolbox.sgi.com/toolbox/utilities/cscope/
|
|
The second one is for those who have a password for the SGI toolbox.
|
|
|
|
There is source to an older version of a cscope clone (called "cs") available
|
|
on the net. Due to various reasons, this is not supported with Vim.
|
|
|
|
The cscope interface/support for Vim was originally written by
|
|
Andy Kahn <ackahn@netapp.com>. The original structure (as well as a tiny
|
|
bit of code) was adapted from the cscope interface in nvi. Please report
|
|
any problems, suggestions, patches, et al., you have for the usage of
|
|
cscope within Vim to him.
|
|
*cscope-win32*
|
|
For a cscope version for Win32 see:
|
|
http://code.google.com/p/cscope-win32/
|
|
|
|
Win32 support was added by Sergey Khorev <sergey.khorev@gmail.com>. Contact
|
|
him if you have Win32-specific issues.
