Hi folks
Does anyone know of any tools that generate visualizations of Fortran code by reading the logic and calls? I'm new to this but I'm currently wading through a large Fortran model attempting to trace the code call by call. I imagine I'm not the first one to think that an automatically generated visualization might be possible. Does anyone know of any software, or just maybe freeware, that does this?
IVF doesn't offer this does it? I don't see any mention of this in Visual Studio (where my IVF is integrated) either.
Years ago I evaluated - for a client - a Tool for doing this type of job. The tool is called
Understand for FORTRAN
from
www.scitool.comIt's a tool that gives you an overview / structureover applications through - at least at that time - generating a lot of html files, that allowed you to click your way through the code. Don't know the pricetag today, but at that time it was not cheap. It did provide an overview of a large application and could save you some timecompared to "hand drawing" calling diagrams.
No matter what tool you will try to use, there are no "silver bullet" or easy way to understand a large application.
