Context Tagging® Options Dia-

support for symbol cross-references.

Find references incrementally (faster) - When unselected, all files with potential references are searched and analyzed so that the files which do not contain any references are removed. When this option is selected, querying references will appear to be faster, since analysis stops when a file is found containing a valid occurrence. However, you may see files which do not have any references to the symbol you are looking for listed in the References view.

Update references and call tree on single click - When this option is selected and you single click on a new symbol in the Classes, Outline, or Symbols view, the references in the References view are updated. This option is not on by default because it can cause problems with double-click.

"Go To Reference" only lists references - When selected, Go To Reference will search for refer- ences, but it will not jump immediately to the first reference. To find the next reference, invoke the find_next command (Search Find Next or Ctrl+G).

Highlight references in editor - Select this option to have each reference highlighted within the file.

Maximums (tune for performance) - You can tune Context Tagging ® performance and accuracy by adjusting these values. Higher values will find more tags but increase search time. Lower values im- prove performance but may cause tags to be omitted.

Functions found by parameter help - When you invoke function parameter Help, this setting limits the number of overloaded functions that will be displayed.

Globals shown in list members - When you invoke List Members, this setting limits the number of global symbols that will be inserted into the list.

Class/struct members shown in list - When you invoke class/struct members, this setting limits the number of members that will be displayed in the list.

Candidates for list parameters - When you invoke list parameters, auto-list compatible values are enabled. This setting limits the number of local variables and class members that will be evaluated to determine assignment compatibility.

Response time for list parameters (ms) - This setting is an upper limit on the amount of time SlickEdit Core will spend finding compatible parameters. Note that this is not a hard limit; in some cases, evaluating the assignment compatibility of a single variable can be time-consuming, especially when templates are involved.

Tags found in search - When you invoke the Find Tag dialog box (right-click in the Symbols View and select Find Tag) the number of tags found is limited by this setting. This setting also controls how many duplicate tags are tried when SlickEdit Core is attempting to evaluate the type of a symbol.

Tag file cache size (k) - You can improve tagging performance by adjusting the tag file cache size to better match the size of your tag files. Generally, a tag file cache size that matches the total size of the tag files being used will provide the best performance. For example, if the tag files for your source code and libraries adds up to 100 MB, you should set your cache size to 100 MB. You may have to experiment to find the optimum value. Use the recommendations below as a guide. Note that this is the same option that is found on the Virtual Memory Tab of the General Options dialog.
