semind - Semantic Indexer for C
semind [options] semind [options] add [command options] [--] [compiler options] [files...] semind [options] rm [command options] pattern semind [options] search [command options] [pattern] semind [options] search [command options] (-e|-l) filename:linenr:column
semind is the simple to use cscope-like tool based on sparse/dissect. Unlike cscope it runs after pre-processor and thus it can't index the code filtered out by ifdef's, but otoh it understands how the symbol is used and it can track the usage of struct members.
add generates or updates semantic index file. rm removes files from the index by pattern. The pattern is a glob(7) wildcard pattern. search queries information about symbol by pattern. The pattern is a glob(7) wildcard pattern.
-D, --database=FILE specify database file (default: ./semind.sqlite). -v, --verbose show information about what is being done. -h, --help show this text and exit.
--include-local-syms include into the index local symbols.
-f, --format=STRING specify an output format. Default: '(%m) %f\t%l\t%c\t%C\t%s' (see FORMAT below). -p, --path=PATTERN search symbols only in specified directories. -m, --mode=MODE search only the specified type of access (see MODE below). -k, --kind=KIND specify a kind of symbol (see KIND below). -e, --explain Show what happens in the specified file position; -l, --location Show usage of symbols from a specific file position; -v, --verbose show information about what is being done; -h, --help show this text and exit.
%m access mode in human readable form (see MODE below). %f file name. %l line number. %c column number. %C the name of the function in which the symbol occurs. %n symbol name. %s source code line. Indexer does not save source code lines. They are read from the file during the search.
f function s strict m struct member
The MODE is dumped as a 3-letter string. The first letter denotes address of part, 2-nd - access by value, 3-rd - access by pointer. A special value 'def' means a symbol definition. r read w write m read and write
