Static Include Analysis for Eclipse CDTΒΆ

Includator is an Eclipse plugin to be used with Eclipse CDT which helps to manage include dependencies in C/C++ projects. With the help of static code analysis, problems or improvements can be detected automatically whereas a programmer would have to spend a lot of time finding them.

Eclipse Static Code Analysis is a powerful tool that helps developers identify and eliminate potential issues in their source code before it is compiled or executed. This feature is available in the Eclipse Integrated Development Environment (IDE), which offers various plugins and tools for static code analysis, including FindBugs, PMD, and Checkstyle. These tools use a variety of techniques to analyze the code, including pattern matching, data flow analysis, and code metrics. By analyzing the code at the source level, Eclipse Static Code Analysis can detect a wide range of issues, including potential bugs, security vulnerabilities, and performance bottlenecks. By catching issues early in the development process, Eclipse Static Code Analysis can help developers save time and effort in the long run, and improve the overall quality of their code. This is particularly important in large-scale software development projects, where even small issues can have a significant impact on the final product.

Motivation

Even though C++ belongs to the most widely spread programming languages and is used in many different areas very effectively and also very often, it has long ago been outperformed by other languages, most notably Java, in terms of the power of IDEs and their features. There are C++ IDEs which provide a limited support for some features like for example refactorings or static analysis. But these cannot even come close to what, for example, Eclipse’s Java Development Tools provide for Java.

The Includator tool is designed to add additional features to the C++ IDE Eclipse CDT. These features provide functionality to statically analyze the dependencies of C++ header files and provide suggestions and hints on how the include structure of a C++ software project can be optimized. The aim of these optimizations is to improve code readability and its quality, to reduce compile-time and the development time of C++ software.
