Tag current word failure

I have a workspace setup with a considerable amount of python and c++ source Code. Anyway, I have a python class that extends another python class. When I put the cursor over the baseclass and select "Tag Current Word" it fails complaining it cannot find the tag. However, in the classes tab, I see this class and can jump to the source etc... Not sure if this is enough information etc. Also, interestingly enough, I have setup a tag database for the document type and it seems to find things in there, but not from the workspace.

Thanks in advance for any insight.

All I can suggest is to try using the Tags Rebuild menu. Unlike the normal file save which will do a selective database update, this menu deletes, then recreates the tags database. I have noticed that this full rebuild sometimes helps

If this does not work, try creating a simple test workspace containing just one file and have that file contain nothing but the broken tag item. If the tag search fails for this simple workspace, then you have probably found a bug

In which case post the single file here and I will take a closer look.

I found by rebuilding the database, things seemed to synch up and work much better. Thanks.
