Variables
PostPosted: Sat Nov 28, 2020 5:46 am     Reply with quote
Is there a way to see where a certain variable is used through out my program?
For example a variable called "c". I just cant search for "c" because it also in comments.

Thanks.

Easy answer....
Give it a better name ?? I know, kinda obvious, usually variable names reflect(tell) what they are used for. Easy with modern lanugages...when I started variables were limited to 1 or 2 characters.

I have to admit I use short names. I can't type so naming something like 'remote_temperature_sensor_number_1_from_greenhouse' isn't a good idea !

Found a way. If I comment out the declare line for that variable I get errors whenever that variable is used when compiling.

You might try getting a C Indexer/Cross Ref program that will give you a
list of all the variables and their location/use. There are a number of free ones out there.

Below is example output from an xref program I wrote for my own use in
Delphi years ago called CCSList customized for CCS code:
Code:
