Re: Using VS2005/C++, how to create a function call (directed) graph or cross ref. table

I have no clue about the use of Doxygen except knowing that it is a system
to manage (and generate?) documentation.
Would you please be more specific as to what / where should I look for there?


Not so much to manage documentation, as to analyze your program structure and generate documentation, including comments placed in the code to give you a high level of control over the result.

Look at the CALL_GRAPH and CALLER_GRAPH options, or \callgraph and \callergraph comments.

Thanks,
David

Doxygen can generate a multi-level call graph... it is designed for ANSI
C++, but I helped the author add some support for C++/CLI.
