Cscope plugin not working?

(1/2) > >>

raynebc:
I'd never used this plugin before, but I find that if I try to use the "Find functions called by" or "Find functions calling" functions, the Cscope log tab is displayed as empty and "error while calling cscope occurred" is displayed in the status area at the bottom of the log pane.  Is there something I'm missing here?  Running the 4-11-2016 nightly build of C::B on Windows 7 Pro x64.

Jenna:
You have to install  cscope executable (see: http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/Cscope_plugin ).

The plugin just calls it.

raynebc:
Thank you.  Unfortunately the cscope project doesn't offer binaries and their code won't build with MinGW/MSYS (needs sys/wait.h which I guess doesn't exist in MinGW).  I was able to find a build on the Internet though (https://easy-vim.googlecode.com/files/cscope.exe) and it seems to work fine.

Excuse me for reopening, I'm having the same problem. I downloaded the executable cscope.exe but how can I "install" it? I found a "Cscope" folder in my \shared\codeblocks path, but it's zipped and contains only a manifest file.
Thanks N. Cassetta

raynebc:
I placed it in my compiler's bin directory, but as long as you put it in one of the folders in your PATH environment variable (so that you can call it from the command line at any working directory) you should be good to go.
