How to let cscope use absolute path in cscope.out file?

Question

Everytime after load a cscope.out in Vim, I need to change Vim\'s \"pwd\" to the same directory as cscope.out file is under, which might be due to that cscope use relative path

Answer 1

When importing cscope.out, you can supply the prefix, i.e.

:cscope add /path/to/cscope.out /path/to/src/code

Then your searches will turn up like:

Cscope Tag: foobar
    #   line  filename / context / line
    1     21 /path/to/src/code/foobar_file.c
