Hello
I used the following to generate the TAGS:
find . -name "*.[ch]*" -print | etags - --language=c++ --members --
declarations

The contents of the TAGS file is as follows:

class.cpp,101
class CarCar3,21
    void speed Car::speed6,43
    void speed Car::speed7,83
void main(10,115

The source code is as follows:

class Car
{
  public:
    void speed (int a) { a=1; return; }
    void speed () {return;}
};

void main()
{
  Car car;
  car.speed(10);
  car.speed();
}
