DESCRIPTION
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.
SUBCOMMANDS
|
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.
COMMON OPTIONS
-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.
ADD OPTIONS
--include-local-syms
include into the index local symbols.
SEARCH OPTIONS
-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.
FORMAT
|
%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. | ||

KIND
|
f |
function |
|||
|
s |
strict |
|||
|
m |
struct member |
MODE
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.
