Anti-virus installed is Symantec Endpoint Protection: Version 14.2
cparse-version and tagsdb-version: Returns the string "Version 22.0.0.9 copyright (c) 1993-2007 SlickEdit Inc." with cparse.dll and tagsdb.dll prepended respectively.
tag_dump_context: Am not sure if I am missing the debug window you're talking about, but from what I can tell this does absolutely nothing. It returns the cursor/active window back to main.cpp and there is no output in any window I can find in vs.
Potentially doable. Will try to get the latest slickedit installed but as I'm not an admin will need to speak/get assistance from our infra support team.
"Do you mean you have -sc "some-new-empty-folder" ? Maybe add +new option as well.
When you start it, does it ask you to do some quick configuration?"
Yes, I run using -sc pointing at a new folder. When it starts it goes through the quick start configuration - the same one you would access if you went to Tools->Quick Start Configuration. I've tried setting up no C/C++ compiler, tried again with a very very old Mingw folder for gcc 3.4.5, again with the include dirs (taken from a linux box just for tagging gcc) for gcc 4.8.0, and then out of desperation installed an old visual studio for vs to detect. None of the above made any difference. Also, each of the above tests were done with a new -sc <new folder> in an attempt to start fresh.
Help-About confirms the "Configuration Directory" set to my chosen -sc location.
fp push-tag: Yes, takes me to pushtag.e just fine.
