Ultimate Source Browsers for C Projects

Csope is a ultimate tool for interactively locating specified elements of C code. Cscope will make your life easier with it’s features.

  • Allows searching code for:
  • all references to a symbol
  • global definitions
  • functions called by a function
  • functions calling a function
  • text string
  • regular expression pattern
  • a file
  • files including a file
  • Curses based (text screen)
  • An information database is generated for faster searches and later reference
  • The fuzzy parser supports C, but is flexible enough to be useful for C++ and Java, and for use as a generalized ‘grep database’ (use it to browse large text documents!)
  • Has a command line mode for inclusion in scripts or as a backend to a GUI/frontend
  • Runs on all flavors of Unix, plus most monopoly-controlled operating systems.

KScope is a KDE front-end to Cscope. It provides a source-editing environment for large C projects, such as the Linux kernel.
