Just wondering if people would be interested in a call back / data flow visualization for their entire application ? Would it be helpful ? Are there people looking for something like that ?
- kbody 12y agoNot sure what you are thinking of exactly, but for monitoring etc Concurix[1] provided deep details about the execution of the whole application. [1]: http://concurix.com/#tutorial-transaction-history http://concurix.com/#tutorial-transaction-history
- ganarajpr 12y agoI was not aware of Concurix . Thank you for the link. I am aware of such monitoring tools though. They seem to be aimed at a different audience though ( monitoring I guess is the key word here ). I was wondering more about the day to day developer who is trying to acquaint himself with a new codebase ? Wondering if a visually shown callgraph / data flow etc would be much easier to digest than a wall of text ( the actual code base )?
- jeffmorrisjr 12y ago@ganarajpr I would love this product! Are you thinking about building it?
- ganarajpr 12y ago@jeffmorrisjr : Thank you for the validation :). Yes, I have been building a prototype product for sometime. Nothing out there yet - as far as I know. If someone knows of a tool / app which does this for a web app I would love to hear about it. We are building bigger and bigger web applications ( and mobile apps these days! ) so my guess is something like this will help.
