The problems with these methods are that I lose all of the
proprocessor
options (they are compiled out, and since one function can have
multiple
possible dependencies depending on what is defined...), and I can't
really tell what _functions_ are calling the other functions. What I
would like is some way of throwing the whole godawful ball of code at
something, and have it spit back at me a dependency graph so that I
can
work from the bottom up and figure out what the heck is going on.
Basically, I need a good, CHEAP refactoring tool.
Search Sourceforge for the latest version of a program called
'ctree'. It only understands plain-old C code, so it doesn't get a
lot of attention these days... But for the code base you describe,
it's just what you're asking for.
A colleague just pointed out that cscope is an alternative to ctools /
ctree, with the advantage that it comes pre-installed on OS X. :-) See
the cscope(1) man page for details.
