How to fix CTAGS to work with ActionScript, from the vim-taglist project:

• ActionScript Add the following lines to the $HOME/.ctags or $HOME/ctags.conf file:

  --langdef=actionscript
  --langmap=actionscript:.as
  --regex-actionscript=/^[ \t]*[(private| public|static) ( \t)]*function[ \t]+([A-Za-z0-9_]+)[ \t]*\(/\1/f, function, functions/
  --regex-actionscript=/^[ \t]*[(public) ( \t)]*function[ \t]+(set|get) [ \t]+([A-Za-z0-9_]+)[ \t]*\(/\1 \2/p,property, properties/
  --regex-actionscript=/^[ \t]*[(private| public|static) ( \t)]*var[ \t]+([A-Za-z0-9_]+)[ \t]*/\1/v,variable, variables/
  --regex-actionscript=/.*\.prototype \.([A-Za-z0-9 ]+)=([ \t]?)function( [ \t]?)*\(/\1/ f,function, functions/
  --regex-actionscript=/^[ \t]*class[ \t]+([A-Za-z0-9_]+)[ \t]*/\1/c,class, classes/
  

  Add the following lines to the ~/.vimrc or $HOME\_vimrc file:

  " actionscript language
  let tlist_actionscript_settings = 'actionscript;c:class;f:method;p:property;v:variable'
  

I actually just add these lines to my maintenance Makefile:

CTAGLANGS = --langdef=actionscript \
--langmap=actionscript:.as \
--regex-actionscript='/^[ \t]*[(private| public|static) ( \t)]*function[\t]+([A-Za-z0-9_]+)[ \t]*\(/\1/f, function, functions/' \
--regex-actionscript='/^[ \t]*[(public) ( \t)]*function[ \t]+(set|get) [ \t]+([A-Za-z0-9_]+)[ \t]*\(/\1 \2/p,property, properties/' \
--regex-actionscript='/^[ \t]*[(private| public|static) ( \t)]*var[  \t]+([A-Za-z0-9_]+)[\t]*/\1/v,variable, variables/' \
--regex-actionscript='/.*\.prototype \.([A-Za-z0-9 ]+)=([ \t]?)function( [  \t]?)*\(/\1/f,function, functions/' \
--regex-actionscript='/^[ \t]*class[ \t]+([A-Za-z0-9_]+)[ \t]*/\1/c,class, classes/'

.PHONY: ctags
ctags:
-rm -f TAGS
find . -name "*.as" -or -name "*.mxml" | ctags -eL - $(CTAGLANGS)

Take off the -e (ctags -L - $(CTAGLANGS)) if you're one of those vi users (I'm being polite because, after all, it's from them comes this tip)

Labels: actionscript, ctags, emacs, flex, make, Makefile, regex, TAGS, vi
