Yes. It doesn't even see the terminals in wisent-java-tags.wy. Could
you give me a hint where they're actually retrieved? (I keep getting
lost in twisty mazes of indirection.) My current thinking is that the
work should happen in `semantic-fetch-tags', but the call to
`semantic-active-p' there returns nil, so it never does anything.
The wisent parser was implemented by someone else, but as far as I know,
`semantic-fetch-tags' is called at the bottom, and it returns parsed
tags from the .wy file. Since the grammar for wisent is compiled by
wisent, there is an obvious funny dependency, so the compiled version of
the grammar is always checked in.
The grammar file (.wy) needs to be put into semantic-grammar-mode. That
mode installs parser info into buffer local variables. Those variables
need to be set for semantic-active-p returns true.
So it could be that the auto-mode-alist is not setup correctly to
install that major-mode on the provided buffer?
How are you debugging this anyway? Things just worked for me when done
interactively.
