In-reply-to: Message from Chuck Robey of "Tue, 31 Oct 1995 16:37:11 EST." Date: Wed, 01 Nov 1995 21:36:37 -0500 Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Peter, Some time ago (>1 year) I saw on one of the main Linux FTP sites, I think sunsite.unc.edu:pub/Linux/devel, a version of gcc instrumented to generate a database while compiling c/c++, and some query tools for the database; it was a project of some Germans, I think. They mentioned that their goal was a cscope clone. Sorry I can't be less vague. If you use (x)emacs, you might also take a look at the oobrwsr (?) package on ftp.cs.uiuc.edu:pub/xemacs/infodock. It is an C++ code browser that allows all kinds of querys, and it is integrated into the emacs editing mode for c++, so you can edit, say, all points where a particular item is used. But I've not used it. There is the xcoral editor from a group at INRIA (France), which purportedly integrates c++ structure browsing into an editor; it is an Xlib-only program too, which should make it an easy port. These suggestions are all a result of wasting time cruising the Internet, the new opium of the masses. ========================= Michel Joly de Lotbiniere mjdl@interlog.com =========================
