Source Code Browser
I'm looking for a piece of relatively simple software to browse large C++ project. What I would like is something that is somewhere between a simple text editor and a full-blown ID开发者_StackOverflowE like Eclipse. I would like syntax highlighting, a way to see all classes/methods defined in a file, a way to find where a particular method is called from and where a variable is declared/defined.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
If you want to know where a particular method is called from, you are going to require some heavy lifting from the IDE. Intellisense like features always compile the code under the hood to give you the benefits of finding where code is called, and where it is defined. I don't consider that lightweight really.
Try Geany. It's a fairly light text editor with a gentle learning curve that has syntax highlighting, and at least a way to see what's defined in a file; it may have the rest available, too. And it's available for multiple operating systems, since you don't specify.
