The SourceGraph program

Ivan Lazar Miljenovic · 2010

As software has increased in size and complexity, a range of tools has been developed to assist programmers in analysing the structure of their code. One of the key concepts used for such analysis is the concept of a call graph, which is used to represent which entities in a code base call other entities. However, most tools which use call graphs are limited to either visualisation for documentation purposes (such as Doxygen) or for dynamic analysis to find areas to optimise in the software using profiling tools such as gprof.
