Find Declaration

[PSeitz]

A find declaration would be helpful in large projects. I could create a patch if someone points me to the code to change.

I can do that, but you're going to need to explain "find declaration" a little more. What do you mean exactly?

[PSeitz]

The navigate_to_definition method lists all the definitions in the popover. The same functionality for the declaration would be great, since it is not always clear, where the method etc. is declared.

Ahhh. I imagine that's that's going to be tough to do if it's not something CTags support natively. Do you know if this works in Vim or any other user of CTags?

[PSeitz]

This should be provided natively from CTags, a colleague uses this function in Emacs with CTags.

Any chance of getting some screenshots of this is action?

Universal-ctags (as well exuberant) has the function prototype feature. I implemented it for C++ here:
