Re: Global --match-part option

Hi,

I'm happy that you're enjoying Global.

It depends on actual file name.

In the following example, the result is always the same.

[Example 1]

sys/

  |-i386/

      |-test.c

$ global -cPM --match-part=first sys

sys/i386/test.c                         # [sys]/i386/test.c

$ global -cPM --match-part=last sys

sys/i386/test.c                         # [sys]/i386/test.c

$ global -cPM --match-part=all sys

sys/i386/test.c                         # [sys]/i386/test.c

On the other hand, in the following example, three 'sys'

appear in the project.

[Example 2]

sys/

  |-i386sys/

      |-sys.c

The result will be as follows.

$ global -cPM --match-part=first sys

sys/i386sys/sys.c                       # [sys]/i386sys/sys.c

$ global -cPM --match-part=last sys

sys.c                                   # sys/i386sys/[sys].c

$ global -cPM --match-part=all sys

sys.c                                   # sys/i386sys/[sys].c

sys/i386sys/sys.c                       # [sys]/i386sys/sys.c

sys/sys.c                               # sys/i386[sys]/sys.c

Hi,

First I'd like to thank you for the great tool you have created. As a C/C++ developer I'm using it extensively and I find it really, really helpful.
I have created plugin for Notepad++ that is a front-end to GTags (Win32 port) and during its testing I noticed that global --match-part option doesn't seem to work.
I also tried it with the native global binary (6.3.3 on Linux) but the behavior is the same.
It appears that --match-part option does not have any effect on the command output.
For example, I'm running

global --match-part first -cPM int

and it has exactly the same output as

global --match-part all -cPM int

That is, it outputs files that match "int" in the middle of the name. --match-part last also doesn't have any effect.

Thank you and Best Regards,
Pavel
