Project Editor

Features:

A project in SNiFF+ comprises a set of files and, optionally, a set of sub-projects that can be shared among the projects. A project can contain artifacts such as source code, binaries, makefiles, test cases, etc. A typical project structure for a program is built on a class library has a root project containing the project-specific (application-specific) source files and a library project as a subproject. Library projects are frequently trees of projects themselves. When a project is opened, its source code is analyzed and the information about the symbols defined therein is stored in SNiFF+'s symbol table.

Benefits:

SNiFF+ projects provide

A natural way of structuring complex software systems.
An exact and complete definition of project elements.
An abstraction of the file-and-directory-based-view, providing a more logical and less implementation-dependent view of a software system.
Better change control because changes (even structural changes) become explicit.
Better build management because the information needed for the build process is contained and maintained in SNiFF+.
A natural way of filtering symbolic information
