++ dependency

[tucolino]

for all c++ coders out there...

i need to write a program that determines dependencies between c++ source files. Besides parsing and scanning for "#includes" and "::'s" what else would do? I need to parse and find ALL calling dependencies. How would yo go about it to try to encompass all of them (if possible)?

btw, I am most definitely not asking anyone to write code for me. I would like to hear your approaches and sugestions regarding such a problem. What patterns should I look for? Thank you.

I believe you should use a COM object named EnvDTE or simply DTE. It is a parser for VisualStudio supported languages. See the object with the progid "VisualStudio.DTE"
