Author Code analyser (looking for recommendations)

Dear all,

Can you recommend any code analyser tool, which allows one to
familiarise oneself with the structure of a code, e.g. which routines
calls which ......

Thanks,
Georg

Maybe Redhat's Source Navigator meet your needs. But AFAIK it supports
FORTRAN 77 only and doesn't handle Fortran 90 code.

Source Navigator is free and available for Win32 and Unix/Linux and
supports C, C++, Java, Tcl, [incr Tcl], FORTRAN and COBOL

From the home page <http://sourcenav.sourceforge.net/index.html>:
Use Source-Navigator to:
* Analyze how a change will effect external source modules.
* Find every place in your code where a given function is called.
* Find each file that includes a given header file.
* Use the grep tool to search for a given string in all your source
files.

There are many other commercial products for Fortran77/90 on the market,
e.g.:
- Cleanscape FortranLint -> http://www.cleanscape.net
- Understand for Fortran -> http://www.scitools.com
- ...

Best regards

If I may, I'll add plusFORT and Forcheck to the list.

http://www.polyhedron.com has full details.

They are commercial packages but free for some categories of user.
