all! We are using Visual Studio 2017 Community for C developement. We would like to be able to see call / dependency graphs of the functions. From what I saw, other, paid versions have these features. I woulf like to know if there is a way to achieve this in Community version.

So: 1. is this possible? 2. IF possible and if not, what other free, good IDEs allow this?

Thanks!

As I know the dependency graph is not available in the community edition, you can try doxygen as explained here, or you can use CppDepend which is free for open source contributors.

  • Thank you! looks interesting, I will look into it. If you know the answer, can you please tell me if these tools are add-ons to VS, or do I have to independently load the project into them for analysis? – Ilans Jan 04 '18 at 12:17
  • doxygen has a VS addon. However it not allow you to generate a specific call graph for a method. With CppDepend you can generate the call graph for each method and there's a VS addon available. – James from CppDepend Team Jan 05 '18 at 14:36
