Tools for developers ?

Our group uses Vi editor for writing code and "grep" to understand the
working of the code.
Seems like we are living 20 years behind the current age.

I have searched for some good tools on the net which can atleast help
to understand a complex huge project by making function call
generators, class relationship diagrams etc.
But I haven't really found any good tool.

Does anybody know of some such good tool.
BTW, Java people sing loads of praises of Eclipse.
Is it usable for C/C++ with Tcl/Tk projects ?

Name-calling gets you no respect.
I suppose being too stupid or hard ass to get a joke does?

/Ex/ vi user, please (and also ex emacs user). Nowadays I use a simple
text editor and maintain vast and complex project structures entirely in
in my head - it's a steep learning curve, but the years of training have
finally paid off.

If you mean the plain old Vi, then you should at least switch to
Vim/gVim and use ctags/cscope for code navigation.

You need to install CDT plugin to develop C/C++ with Eclipse. Personally
I find it bloated, and practically useless.

Are we going backwards ? (please excuse my spelling...) In my opinion an absolute YES ! Take a look at what we are doing ! we create TAGS, things like <H1> etc. and although there are tools (dreamweaver and the like), they are all at the lowest level of programming (something like assembly as oposed to C++ etc.). These tools create "brain-dead" developers that constantly have to plough through tons of tags to do the simplest thing. ...

I'd like to get suggestions from some of the folks here regarding tools and processes for a new, small development team. I'm starting a new job next week, and part of the fun is being able to start fresh. It's a bit different than what I've done in the past, in a smaller organization than I'm used to.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
