Hello,I used ctags parser for my project,it's fast and smart.But I found that codelite will generate a huge ctags database file for each workspace(mingw over 16M),which include duplicate tags for global search paths.
Is there a way that codelite generating a common ctags file for globel ctags search paths and another ctags file for workspace? Codelite searchs workspace ctags file first and then globel ctags file.This will reduce the hard disk space of workspace.
Suggestion:separate ctags file for global search paths

16M is rather small...plainzw wrote:mingw over 16M
To be honest, I would not invest time on this feature because I dont really see the benefit of it (beside disk space)
It will however, reduce performance (queries now needs to be executed on 2 database + we need to merge results from different database)
