Using Static Graphs
Chapter 10284
Static Graph Tasks Description
Analyzing Impact of Change Determining how classes, functions,
or files are impacted by a specific
change. For example, "What code is
affected if I change this parameter
list?"
Understanding Legacy Code Quickly understanding code you did
not develop. The graphs provide
different perspectives that can
accelerate this learning process.
Re-architecting Code Understanding the current structure
and dependencies between files,
functions, or classes to determine
what re-architecting is needed.
Query Graph Showing the sequence of queries you
used to solve a particular problem.
All Static graphs are invoked from the "Graph" menu. Each graph has its
own menu bar providing start-up, query, and customization functionality.
