iMaGix 4D Presented by: Elliott Harrington Derek Larson Matt Heinzelman Cheneng Vang
2
Imagix Corporation Headquartered in San Luis Obispo, CA Products for reverse-engineering, quality analysis and documentation of software Applied in deep space communication, air traffic control systems, billing and management info. Systems, computer peripherals, communication devices and medical instruments
3
Customers include… Boeing General Dynamics Intel Lucent Nokia Siemens Toshiba Air Force NASA JPL FAA Sandia National Labs
4
What is Imagix 4D? A software to help software developers… Understand complex/legacy C & C++ software Reverse engineer code Document Code Eliminate bugs A comprehensive program understanding tool
5
Advantages Rapidly check or systematically study your software on any level Ability to visually explore your software Review software metrics and source Automatically creates design documents Spend more time engineering Get new hires on board faster Reduces the cost of software maintenance

UML Diagrams
9
Class Diagram Unified Modeling Language notation Classes Class’s members Class Hierarchy Can add relevant detailed member-level relationships (associations)
10
UML Diagrams File Diagram Same UML diagram format as the class diagrams Displaying package / member information at the file level physical location of the files Add in build dependencies
11
UML Diagrams Built-In Abstractions One mechanism to address the problem of scope. abstracting member to member relationships to the members‘ containers example, if classA::methodA calls classB::methodB, you're able to view a higher level graph where classA is shown as calling classB. You thereby can avoid becoming deluged in the details of the design
12
Control Flows
13
Control Flow Analysis Control Flow mode provides the next level of detail beyond a call graph Shows the order that all the function calls are made See where a call is made all the time or just under some conditions Able to accurately understand the dependencies in complex or sequence critical code
14
Flow Charts Shows the complete control flow, or program logic occurring in each function Helps you quickly grasp the internal logic of a routine Sorts through if conditions, switch statements, and do loops Linked to the File Editor so changes can be made quickly and easily By seeing the source code in combination with the logic, you're able to understand and modify the function much more quickly and accurately
15
Function Pointer Support Any variable with data containing function names is marked as a function pointer All functions are recorded as being potentially called from a function pointer If a function makes a call through the function pointer, then the function is shown as calling the function pointer variable
16
You can see the potential call tree by following the call relationship from the function to the function pointer variable The result is that you end up with a complete and accurate understanding of your software.
17
Software Metrics and Design Documents
18
Software Metrics Use to analyze all the measurements taken by Imagix 4D Can list, sort, compare, and rank all files, classes, functions, and variables Has many different general categories: Lines of Source Code Lines of Comments Comments to Code Ratio Number of Variables in a File Number of Declarations in a File Etc.
19
Also, has many specific categories: Halstead’s Metrics Mental Effort, Program Difficulty, and Intelligence Content Inherited and Derived Classes Class Coupling Lack of Cohesion Between Classes McCabe Cyclomatic Complexity Etc. Software Metrics
20
Display in different formats: Absolute, Relative, and Graph Can also change the thresholds of the data found
21
Documentation Using Imagix Five to Fifteen percent of development goes into documentation Imagix automates the system by using the data gathered and the source code Outputs into three formats: ASCII RTF (Rich Text Format) HTML
22
Documentation Using Imagix Sorted into nine categories: Project Files Classes Functions (also Library) Macros Variables Types (also Pre-Defined)
