I know that
.set hlsearch
will highlight all matches of search patterns.
My question is, can this highlighting be done only for occurrences of a local
variable within a C/C++ subroutine? E.g. highlight all occurrences of 'i' that
are local to a subroutine but not those outside.
Try funcsrch (get it from
http://www.drchip.org/astronaut/vim/index.html#FUNCSRCH)
To do what you want:
:set hls
:FS \<varname\>

I had trouble getting this to work.
The first issue was SaveWinPosn was not defined. I found it in cecutil.vba,
but I don't see this being mentioned as a prerequisite.
Currently it doesn't seem to do anything, but hitting 'n' produces:
E486: Pattern not found: \%(\%>0l\%<34l\)&MYSTRING
(where MYSTRING is what was being searched for and does exist in the current C
function).
It looks like 34 is the line after what may be considered the first block as
enclosed by {}, but not the block the cursor is currently sitting.
Is there more magic needed or is my environment conflicting?
Sorry about the SaveWinPosn problem -- funcsrch was on the wrong list so
it didn't have cecutil.vim bundled with it. My website's version of
funcsrch now has cecutil bundled with it.
Do the normal mode commands [[ and ][ go to the beginning and ending of
the function your cursor is in? Its possible that your style of coding
prevents vim's method of recognizing beginning-ending of functions from
working, and FuncSrch uses that.
