Etags and OOP

Hello, I was wondering is there a way for etags or any custom tool
compatible with emacs to write tags according to the class hierarchy when
writing Object Oriented code for later use in completion? Or any past works
along this? Thanks.

Take a look at Ebrowse.  It comes with its own manual, and is part of
Emacs.

Try ebrowse (part of emacs). It creates a OO based tree and might serve your requirement. I have not tried the completion part from ebrowse but use gtags (GNU Global).

You also have cscope, which comes with the xcscope plugin, but you have to
give it some extra flags for the sake of tags completeness. In C++ I use:

    tags-exuberant --c++-kinds=+p --c-kinds=+p --fields=+iaS --extra=+q --tag-relative=yes <files>
