Emacs/CEDET - moving semantic.cache files out of the way

April 26th 2006 Posted to Emacs, Programming

If you’re using the CEDET tools which I recently mentioned, then you might come to be annoyed with the semantic.cache files that start littering all of your directories. Luckily there’s a solution:

(setq semanticdb-default-save-directory “~/tmp/semantic.cache”)

    I found that after making the change you suggest, emacs would not exit
    at all.
    I set the path to “/tmp/semantic.cache”
    it would fail because it would not find the path “/tmp/semantic.cache/!SOME!FILE!I!CREATE.semantic.cache”

    I added this to my .emacs and then emacs would exit cleanly. ‘(semanticdb-persistent-path nil)
