Have you ever been looking for a tool that you can query for things like:
- Which include files does file XXX.cpp include directly ?
- Which include files does file XXX.cpp include recursively ?
- Which files include XXX.h ?
- How does file XXX.cpp include file YYY.h ?
- How much lines of code have to be recompiled if I touch file YYY.h ?
- How does project P1 depend on project P2 ?
- What include statements can be removed from file F because they are implied by other include statements in that same file ?
- ...and more
Would you also like to
- Visualize dependency graphs ?
- Automatically track violations in case certain projects are not supposed to include from other projects ?
- Have a tool that is free under GPLv3, open source and cross-platform ?
In a series of blog posts, we will systematically develop exactly such a tool using swi-prolog and python 2.
