Source Nav 4.5 XREF

Source Nav 4.5 XREF

[Jorge E. Rodriguez]

Hello,

I was wondering if there are any options/features  to source navigator 4.5 which would
allow me to determine all symbols which are not referenced in a given project.

My situation is that I have a C++ Source Nav project which may contain a
fairly sizeable amount of "dead code" (i.e. not used, not referenced,... you get it).
Well I would like to be able to get rid of these methods, constants,....

I was hoping that since source nav basically creates a Xref database, there would be a
way to query this XREF db (or run a command on it maybe) which would give me a list
(does not have to be graphical) of all the symbols which are not referenced.

Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated.


Regards,

Jorge

You would need to write your own code to query the databade
for this sort of thing.
