[...] Dehydra is a lightweight static analysis tool for C++. It is implemented as a GCC plugin that passes C++ AST information to JavaScript code, which can examine the provided AST nodes. Among other things, Dehydra is used as the smarts behind a very cool semantic Mozilla code browser called DXR (Dehydra Cross Reference). [...]

[...] DXR meet-up and planning session with Benjamin and Taras. To say that these guys have high hopes for what it might do is an understatement. But I think it’s all doable, and I’m pumped to get started on it again in the fall. You know good things are coming when you see this on irc in the wee hours of the morning: “04:01 < csmedberg> woot, initial outline of dxrpy code in my hg userdir” [...]

There is already promising work on C/objetive-C/objective-C++ frontends for xhydra on bug 421097, there’s a good chance that eventually it will handle those

Wow. So, how does it go, with the tab strip and the animation?! View > Source is… somewhat bare-bones! Firebug > Inspect just shows me a bunch of empty divs.

It must be bits of XUL, but ?? I can’t see any.js file loading a XUL file.

Show-stopper bug: it needs a lot of work for MSIE 7 compatibility

Looks good… hope dehydra can handle the C portions at some point as well…

Also, you might want to look at doxygen stuff as well in addition to MDC for documentation.

Hey Steve:

Yes, bsmedberg and I want to redo the diagram, as it’s wrong (missing things like accessible) and inaccurate in places. Really and truly just something that existed and I could use in a hurry.

Funnily enough, the test case I had as I worked on this project was accessible and nsIAccessible, nsPIAccessible, nsAccessible

That’s a really useful way of navigating the code base. bookmarked it too.

Any chance you could add /accessible to the diagram? We’d love it to be nice and visible
