( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
While I cannot recommend from personal experience, these seem to be the links you need. Though I actually have a porting project that could use them I end up writing little greppy scripts that make text reports of what calls what. So for my current project besides just grepping the names of all subs in a file at the command line, I have written some utilities based on File::Find. For example make a list of all the files in all folders, sort by suffix, find callers, find all html files that call a given cgi, etc. This info is important for me to refactor it all.

But I was moved to check again since I remember finding (and I think mentioning on PM, somewhere..) someone who had done a cool demonstration of graphing of his perl program at runtime. I couldn't find it but think this is probably GraphViz..

Answer: Generate UML from Perl code? includes four responses including autodia.
Generate a Graph-ical call tree for your *.pm perl modules uses graphviz at AT&T.
An article at DDJ about using graphviz.
cpan search for graphviz which showed me some other things like GraphViz::ISA and Joe McMahon's site on GraphViz::Data::Structure

Hope this helps.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
