Is there any refactoring tools/plug-ins/add-ons (even 3rd party) available for Keil IDE?
or
Has anyone done this sort of things any other way (any standalone tools/applications)?
Many Thanks for your suggestions and help
Thank you all for your participation in this question, I would like to provide a summary of what have been discussed up to now.
The refactoring approach for your source code would be one of these:
1- Use Keil's IDE (best way for small-to-medium amount of sourcecode, specially if you yourself have written most part of that code)
2- Use MS Visual C++ IDE.
3- Use Eclipse IDE's Integrated tools.
4- Use SlickEdit (Stand alone / Eclipse plug-in / MSVC plug-in)
5- Use Borland's CodeWright
I will need some time to evaluate these methods and see which one best satisfies my needs.
I found the suggestions made here very useful, I will be very happy to hear new ideas as well.
Many Thanks, Ali.
"The refactoring approach for your source code would be one of these"
I don't think I've ever done a project where I rely solely on one single product!
All products have strengths & weaknesses - so there's always some areas where one excels, and others where another is better.
eg, I very often have both uVision and CodeWright open simultaneously for working on the same project.
"1- Use Keil's IDE (best way for small-to-medium amount of sourcecode, specially if you yourself have written most part of that code)"
The editor and project manager in uVision are both really quite basic and limited - the only reason to use it is for its direct integration with the build & debug tools. So, if you have other IDEs and tools available for source-only tasks, I would certainly prefer them!
