Source code browsers for C++ Hi, Can anyone recommend a good program that I could use to help
understand a large and complex C++ program? I have been told that
there are such programs that will convert the source code into a set
of HTML pages.
Many Thanks,
Nik Shaylor

RE: Source code browsers for C++ May be you can try Doxygen or UnderstandC++ (www.scitools.com). To
explore more options please google!!

DOxygen's okayish, even does diagrams, but needs special comment formats
Don't know any others, would like to though.
LXR, the Linux Cross Reference Project produces nice syntax colouring, I
think there 'CVS' like webware is open source, but not really for local
usage.
I would like to find something that can handle any C++ without needing
Java/DOxygen @param style quotes. Okay for new projects that are going to
adopt such styles of commenting but for existing code not so good.

You might also find interesting the following link:
http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/DoxyS.asp
or the link to the original home page:
http://www.doxys.dk/
I'm using it just now, and find its results more visually pleasing
than those from doxygen. Of course it's a matter of personal taste
Its use is extremely simple, and the documentation conventions are the
same as those of doxygen, so if you have source files already set for
doxygen, they're also good for DoxyS.
The only negative side I see, it takes a little more time to produce
its output, but not that much!
