A tool for the maintenance of C++ programs
Johannes Sametinger · 2002
The author describes a software tool that helps programmers understand object-oriented software systems written in C++. This task is accomplished by providing information about the set of classes and files of which the system is comprised and the relationships among them. The tool described enables its users to browse easily through the system on the basis of the relations among its classes, files, and even identifiers. In addition, the flexible use of global text styles enhances the readability of the source code. The implementation of the tool is described. In particular, problems are mentioned that arise when performing static analysis of C++ programs.>
