How to reverse engineer the whole source tree with VS 2005?

S J
I have a VS 2005 C++ project including a bunch of files under multiple
folders. For example:

- project root
- file1.cpp
- file2.cpp
- folder1
- file3.cpp
- file4.cpp
- folder2
- file5.cpp
- file6.cpp

I used Project - Add Existing Item to add file1 to file 6 to the
project. I could only add files to the project. There is no option to
add an entire folder. After compiling successfully, I went to Project -
Visio UML - Reverse Engineer to create a visio UML. The output log of
the reverse engineering shows it succeeded. However, when I open the
visio file, only the classes in file1.cpp and file2.cpp were shown in
the model explorer. I have tried everything but just couldn't get the
files under subfolders, i.e. file3 to file6 added to the model. Did I
do anything wrong or did I miss anything?

Thanks.
Frank

OK, I found what the problem is. I used filter in the solution panel to
make the project files easier to read. Turns out that the files won't
be detected by reverse engineering if they have a filter...

A friend's small business has gotten themselves in trouble. Their only programmer has recently skipped the country and did not leave the source code or any design notes for a couple of program modules. It appears that he did all the work for those few modules on his own laptop and never integrated them into Visual Source Safe. What tools, if any, exist in the VB world to disassemble / reverse engineer these modules?

With my set up of Visio (2003) and Visual Studio (.Net 2003 Enterprise Architect) I can only reverse engineer C++ code into the class-tree. Is it (supposed to be) possible to generate a static (class) diagram? It seems like this at least has been possible (according to the "Using C++.Net. Special Edition" book by K Gregory. If this is not possible, do anyone know a good way to reverse engineer (which software etc)? Thanks, Paul

I'm relatively new to DB2 and was reasonably amused to see the REVERSE SCAN availability for Indexes. My assumptions are as follows: DB2/UDB uses B-Tree for indexing by default and is likely the main offering for Indexing within the DB. Reverse Scans could possibly only happen on the the leaf node of the index

Hi, I am trying to reverse engineer some software in C. Ideally I would like to use a free program that would scan for function calls and map the route of function calls in programs in a tree structure. ie. main() defined in a.c | ----------------> init_comms() defined in b.c

Hi, I'd like to reverse engineer the schema definitions in the SQL Server on a daily basis and store them in a version control system. Could anyone please let know if there are any tools to reverse engineer the entire schema definitions in the SQL server. I'd like something like the perl script 'dbschema.pl' for the Sybase ASE.

Hi, Im interested in Reverse Engineering C++ source code into a form more comprehensible than the source itself. I want to write a basic one myself, obviously i need to write a parser for the source code. Although this has some overlap with say a compiler it would also seem significantly different too.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. 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,...
