Add'l Search Path + Tag Settings

Is there a way to automatically add / merge the path(s) specified in the compiler specified Additional Search Path, to the Tag / Include Files?

Seems like these should be the same list ?

I agree, however this caused a problem in the past.

For example: when using a custom build, user does not use codelite's include paths (from the project settings) since he is using his own makefile/qmake/configure/etc

For those users, code-completion wont work.

I might use a different approach:

- codelite will auto-detect the search paths for the default libraries (/usr/include, /usr/include/c++ etc)
- the rest of the search path will be taken from the project settings

Two problems to workaround here:

- The paths must be in absolute paths (this might cause problems when working with different volumes under Windows)
- expanding backticks/environment variables/codelite's macros
