- Does anyone know a good C++ class browser for MS Windows that will
- browse source code in multiple header and source directories? I don't
- want to buy another compiler, just need the browser. Such a class
- browser should do the following:
-
- 1. Let you specify a list of include and source directories and
- optional preprocessor #defines and see something like a FileManager-like
- class hierarchy tree.
- 2. Then by clicking on any class, selectively list all/some/none inherited
- methods and data by indicating how far up the inheritance tree to show.
- 3. In addition, selectively show any combination of
- public/private/protected and virtual/const/static functions and data.
- 4. By clicking any particular method or data, see its complete declaration
- and definition.
-
- When I purchased Borland's C++ with App Frameworks, I was rather shocked
- that the builtin class browser only worked on executables. I like what
- Borland has done but honestly, any good OO development environment, C++
- or otherwise, should have a class hierarchy browser for use with source code.
- After all, code comes before executable!
