modelling C++ global/namespace variables/methods
« on: June 25, 2009, 12:42:50 am »
Hello

I am reverse engineering a C++ codebase that has (obviously  :-/ ) global/namespace methods and variables.

1. How do I reverse engineer global or namespace level variables/methods?
2. How do I model global or namespace level variables/methods?

For practical reasons I cant change the current design as that will be really costly!

P.S. I am using EA 5.0  ... but waiting for budget approval to upgrade :'( ... so if this feature is already supported in EA 7.5 i can make a stronger case!

any help greatly appreciated!
cheers
Nilay

It's not supported.

My only suggestion is to try importing as C.  Obviously that won't work if there are classes in your files though.
