Dear Roman,

the etags bug that you signaled:

as Eli Zaretskii correctly explains, has an easy and recommended
workaround.

I will try nonetheless to correct the bug, but I am not sure if this can
be done, because of the way the etags parser is implemented.  Do you
have any strong reasons why you should use this style

================
   #define DECLARE_TEST(name) static int test_##name;
   
   DECLARE_TEST(var)
================

rather than this style?

================
   #define DECLARE_TEST(name) static int test_##name
   
   DECLARE_TEST(var);
================

Thank for your bug report, and please try to answer my question.

Hello,

I tried to index the following code with etags:

#define DECLARE_TEST(name)      \
        static int test_##name;

DECLARE_TEST(var)



void my_func(int i) {
        test_var = i;
}

void my_func2(int j) {
        test_var = j;
}


It looks like etags does not create an entry for the my_func function because
the closing semicolon is in the definition of the macro. I am using etags that
comes with GNU Emacs 21.4 (Debian emacs21 21.4a-3). I tried the same code with
cscope and there it works.

Best regards,
Roman Pletka
