Does anyone out there know of any software to extract inheritance graphs and class usage info from C++ source? Ideally I would like a C++ equivalent to the Eiffel short/flat/ancestor utilities. I know about the ObjectWorks environment: we have decided against that on performance grounds. So: does anyone know of anything? PD, Copyleft, commercial, research, whatever. Thanks in advance, Paul.

The InterViews software comes with iclass, a class browser. You can
get a copy from Stanford. (The mailing address
interviews-request@interviews.stanford.edu
should get a response. Below is an excerpt of the manual entry.

NAME
iclass - class browser
SYNOPSIS
iclass [-r] [-v] path [path...]
DESCRIPTION
Iclass is a simple class browser that lets you navigate
through C++ class hierarchies and view the definition of a
particular class. You can select classes from three
browsers: the first shows a list of all known classes; the
second shows the parents of the selected class, if any; and
the third shows the children of the selected class, if any.
You can choose a name from any of these lists and tell
iclass to show the definition of that class, or you can type
the name of a class explicitly in the StringEditor labeled
``selected class.'' The view of the class definition shows
the source code from the header file that defines the
selected class.
COMMANDS
Iclass provides pull-down menus for issuing commands. The
``File'' menu includes the following commands:
Scan Files/Directories...
Prompt for additional pathnames to scan.
Quit
Close the window and exit.
Commands in the ``Search'' menu include:
Forward Search...
Search forward in the class definition for a match with

a given regular expression, wrapping from the end to
the beginning of the buffer if necessary.
Backward Search...
Search backward for a match with a given regexp.
Go to line...
Move the cursor to the beginning of the given line,
scrolling the display if necessary.

I made a rather trivial modification to the InterViews iclass program to have it dump out the data it obtains on the class hierarchy. That is, idraw, which is freely available from Stanford University, takes a set of directories as arguments and scans through them looking for class definitions. It places this information in its own data structures so one can browse through them easily. You could modify this program yourself to do whatever you want to do with the class information it obtains. -- tom (aisle C-4Q), ekberg@csc.ti.com

> |> That is, idraw, which > |> is freely available from Stanford University, I have typed idraw so often I typed it when I meant to type iclass. Anyway, both idraw and iclass are part of the InterViews X toolkit which is available via ftp from interviews.stanford.edu 36.22.0.175 It is also on the X11R4 distribution tape. The idraw program is an object-oriented graphics editor that supports color, multiple fonts and many other features. It is my graphics editor of choice. -- tom (aisle C-4Q), ekberg@csc.ti.com
