multiple "cscope: cannot find file ..." in *cscope* buffer

Open c02y opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

Hi, when I tried to use xcscope to find definition or something, it prints multiple lines of

cscope: cannot find file path/to/file

and I notice that the path/to/file is symbolic link file, I know this issue was posted https://github.com/dkogan/xcscope.el/issues/8 and it is the issue of cscope itself, but could you please remove those lines from the cscope buffer, that would be better, since I use cscope command from terminal, there is no such "cannot find" line from the result of cscope.

Hi. xcscope.el is an interface cscope; it does not actually DO anything. So if cscope has a problem, it should be fixed there. Can you see how rscope avoids these issues? Does it simply ignore such output? It would be very helpful if you pinged the cscope bug so that they can hopefully fix it there. Thanks.
