What Code Browser & Source Control To Use?
-
Hello, I use Source Insight at work and enjoy the interface (large c/c++ tree for embedded systems built on a mounted unix box). I do some MFC work at home using the VC++ 6.0 interface and find that I long for the Source Insight style. Is the new .net C++ code browser a great improvement over 6.0 and will it offer similar features to Source Insight? Or, if you use Source Insight with VC++ 6.0, how can I make Source Insight call the MFC compiler locally (if there's a way). Also, I'd like to implement some souce control for my home projects. Any recommendations? thanks, JennyP

Browser: SourceNavigator from RedHat. It is free and runs on Windows plus Linux. google for "Source Navigator". Version Control: CVS is the "standard". Also free. Also runs on Windows or Linux. Used for version control on internet-developed programs. Simple to learn; plenty of docs available. LinCVS is a GUI version that I like. Runs on Windows too.
