Editing C++ Structures with SoftBench Class Graph/Editor

Each time you make an edit, SoftBench Class Graph/Editor updates the

graph, changes the source ﬁles, and invokes the source scanner to update

the database. The scanning process takes time, and it's possible for the

graph to become unsynchronized if you make edits before the scan

completes.

If you notice that the graph appears to be unsynchronized with your

sources, you may need to re-analyze the database (choose "File:

Analyze File Set" in the main SoftBench Static Analyzer window) and
