cpptools / News: Recent posts

Cpptools documentation was fully reviewed, thanks to Harry Glasgow (e-mail glaha03@yahoo.com). Of course, any remaining error is due to myself.

It will be available in release v0.1.7.

This release introduces two improvements:

CppScanner.py was completely rewritten, and now correctly identifies numbers beginning with "."

Created CppTokenizer.py which shows how compiler's lexical analyzer breaks a program into pieces (tokens)

I hope you enjoy.

CVS repository will be no longer updated, due to performance (modem) reasons. I hope it will not be a problem, since every version goes with full source-code.

This release introduces two new tools:

CppBinHierarchy scans library files (both .so and .a), object files and executable files to generate a graphic showing dependencies among them

CppComment scans source files and translates C comments to C++, C++ comments to C or replaces them to a single space (strip).

Thanks to Eduardo Costa, now we have a great homepage. Feel free to add suggestions and comments. Every bad english grammar are on me, and corrections would be very appreciated.

This release features cpptools' manual in pdf and CppText which generates a C++ program to output textfiles. It is very useful to implement generators, CGIs and filters.

This release features CppRename, our first refactoring tool. It renames identifiers' names (classes, functions, variables) while preserving comments andstrings from changing. CppGprof2Dot which generates execution call-tree for profiled executables were added. Some new minor features were added.

Version 0.1.2 released. Check it out!
