Tagging does not seem to work with extensionless STL files

[JRen]

I had this working before (perhaps 10.x) but now my STL tag file doesn't provide the symbol lookup I need for the extensionless files.  E.g. when I put the cursor over "list<xxx>" it only shows the "list.h" files it finds in some other tag file and completely ignores the tag file with my STL headers.  I've rebuilt it and re-tagged the file.  Still nothing.

Any ideas?

I think you have to teach Slick that these are C files. There were some changes in v11 for this...
See http://community.slickedit.com/index.php?topic=303.msg1154#msg1154 for further details...

Thanks for the pointer but this is not working.  I added "list" and "queue" and others to the C++ Extentionless files list.  They are in my C tag file.  I rebuilt/retagged - nothing.  I'll probably contact support directly if no other tips come out of the cracks.

No problem here (v11.01)
Just added vector to my workspace tagfile ... (see attachment)
There is no need to add the 'standard' ext.less files as extra ext. less C++ files.
Slick has a default built-in list of them.
One more thing to check: 'Project -> Project Properties -> Compile/Link Tab'
Is the Compiler the right one ?

BTW: A simple way to check if Slick recognizes these files as C- files:
Type e.g. #include <list> in a C file and move cursor into the word 'list' and 'Goto Definition' using r-mouse context menu or Ctrl-. (maybe you already know all that ...)
Slick should find it and colorizes it as C file.

Wow - OK it was a namespace issue.  SlickEdit wasn't finding the std:: namespace by default.  Once I put "using namespace std;" at the top of the file, it suddenly resolved the symbols.  I didn't really need it, it's a very simple test app so the compiler was happy, but SlickEdit was finding every instance of "list" symbols in my tag files except that one until I included the namespace at the top.

I also removed some redundant tag files but I think the namespace issue was it.  Different behavior than 10.x, but I'm OK with that as long as I know what to do.

Thanks for you help HS2!
