  29 ;; PURPOSE:
  30 ;; This package features a function called ff-find-other-file, which performs
  31 ;; the following function:
  32 ;;
  33 ;;     When in a .c file, find the first corresponding .h file in a set
  34 ;;     of directories and display it, and vice-versa from the .h file.
  35 ;;
  36 ;; Many people maintain their include file in a directory separate to their
  37 ;; src directory, and very often you may be editing a file and have a need to
  38 ;; visit the "other file". This package searches through a set of directories
  39 ;; to find that file.
  40 ;;
  41 ;; THE "OTHER FILE", or "corresponding file", generally has the same basename,
  42 ;; and just has a different extension as described by the ff-other-file-alist
  43 ;; variable:
  44 ;;
  45 ;;   '(("\\.cc$"  (".hh" ".h"))
  46 ;;     ("\\.hh$"  (".cc" ".C" ".CC" ".cxx" ".cpp")))
  47 ;;
  48 ;; If the current file has a .cc extension, ff-find-other-file will attempt
  49 ;; to look for a .hh file, and then a .h file in some directory as described
  50 ;; below. The mechanism here is to replace the matched part of the original
  51 ;; filename with each of the corresponding extensions in turn.
  52 ;;
  53 ;; Alternatively, there are situations where the filename of the other file
  54 ;; cannot be determined easily with regexps. For example, a .c file may
  55 ;; have two corresponding .h files, for its public and private parts, or
  56 ;; the filename for the .c file contains part of the pathname of the .h
  57 ;; file, as between src/fooZap.cc and include/FOO/zap.hh. In that case, the
  58 ;; format above can be changed to include a function to be called when the
  59 ;; current file matches the regexp:
  60 ;;
  61 ;;   '(("\\.cc$"  cc--function)
  62 ;;     ("\\.hh$"  hh-function))
  63 ;;
  64 ;; These functions must return a list consisting of the possible names of the
  65 ;; corresponding file, with or without path. There is no real need for more
  66 ;; than one function, and one could imagine the following value for cc-other-
  67 ;; file-alist:
  68 ;;
  69 ;;    (setq cc-other-file-alist
  70 ;;        '(("\\.cc$"  ff-cc-hh-converter)
  71 ;;          ("\\.hh$"  ff-cc-hh-converter)
  72 ;;          ("\\.c$"   (".h"))
  73 ;;          ("\\.h$"   (".c" ".cc" ".C" ".CC" ".cxx" ".cpp"))))
  74 ;;
  75 ;; ff-cc-hh-converter is included at the end of this file as a reference.
  76 ;;
  77 ;; SEARCHING is carried out in a set of directories specified by the
  78 ;; ff-search-directories variable:
  79 ;;
  80 ;;     ("." "../../src" "../include/*" "/usr/local/*/src/*" "$PROJECT/src")
  81 ;;
  82 ;; This means that the corresponding file will be searched for first in
  83 ;; the current directory, then in ../../src, then in one of the directories
  84 ;; under ../include, and so on. The star is _not_ a general wildcard
  85 ;; character: it just indicates that the subdirectories of this directory
  86 ;; must each be searched in turn. Environment variables will be expanded in
  87 ;; the ff-search-directories variable.
  88 ;;
  89 ;; If the point is on a #include line, the file to be #included is searched
  90 ;; for in the same manner. This can be disabled with the ff-ignore-include
  91 ;; variable, or by calling ff-get-other-file instead of ff-find-other-file.
  92 ;;
  93 ;; If the file was not found, ff-find-other-file will prompt you for where
  94 ;; to create the new "corresponding file" (defaults to the current directory),
  95 ;; unless the variable ff-always-try-to-create is set to nil.
  96 ;;
  97 ;; GIVEN AN ARGUMENT (with the ^U prefix), ff-find-other-file will get the
  98 ;; other file in another (the other?) window (see find-file-other-window and
  99 ;; switch-to-buffer-other-window). This can be set on a more permanent basis
 100 ;; by setting ff-always-in-other-window to t in which case the ^U prefix will
 101 ;; do the opposite of what was described above.
 102 ;;
 103 ;; THERE ARE FIVE AVAILABLE HOOKS, called in this order if non-nil:
 104 ;;
 105 ;; - ff-pre-find-hook     - called before the search for the other file starts
 106 ;; - ff-not-found-hook    - called when the other file could not be found
 107 ;; - ff-pre-load-hook     - called just before the other file is 'loaded'
 108 ;; - ff-file-created-hook - called when the other file is created
 109 ;; - ff-post-load-hook    - called just after the other file is 'loaded'
 110 ;;
 111 ;; The *load-hook allow you to place point where you want it in the other
 112 ;; file.

 819 In addition, this runs various hooks.
 820
 821 Either F1 or F2 receives FILE as the sole argument.
 822 The decision of which one to call is based on IN-OTHER-WINDOW
 823 and on the global variable `ff-always-in-other-window'.
 824
 825 F1 and F2 are typically `find-file' / `find-file-other-window'
 826 or `switch-to-buffer' / `switch-to-buffer-other-window' function pairs.
 827
 828 If optional NEW-FILE is t, then a special hook (`ff-file-created-hook') is
 829 called before `ff-post-load-hook'."
