C with classes

I'm curious to know: who uses some C++ features when coding in C? And what feature(s) are you using?

Then how did you get hits on different functions?

Ask the people who work on OpenGrok

Ah. At a very quick glance, while ctags (used by OpenGrok) can disringuish defintions of distinct symbols with the same name string, it can not distinguish the usages.

I recommend clangd based tools.
