Earlier in this thread, we discussed supporting non-default tagged symbols (those tagged with "@version"). To allow for that, I was thinking of these three cases:
- SYMBOLS__TAG_INCLUDE_NONE: ignore all tagged symbols (the current behavior)
- SYMBOLS__TAG_INCLUDE_DEFAULT_ONLY: match tagged symbols when tagged as default ("@@"; added with this patch)
- SYMBOLS__TAG_INCLUDE_ALL: match all tagged symbols ("@" and "@@"; future)
For the names of the enums, I chose "SYMBOLS__TAG..." to put it first in the SYMBOLS namespace, and second in a "TAG" sub-namespace.
I'm happy to fix the discrepancy with signed/unsigned by changing to enum.
Let me know what enum names are preferred, given the above discussion, and I'll post a new patch.
Thanks for the review!
