[gmx-developers] Code Browser (dev call follow up)

[Schulz, Roland]

Hi,

As I mentioned on the last developer call, there is a code browser and Gerrit integration available. One can click on a function in Gerrit to go the definition and usages. It is available in the QT Gerrit and it looks like http://imgur.com/Q3a2ixz . The links go to https://code.woboq.org/qt5/qtbase/src/corelib/io/qurl.cpp.html#_ZN4QUrl13fromLocalFileERK7QString and https://code.woboq.org/data/symbol.html?root=../qt5/&ref=_ZN4QUrl13fromLocalFileERK7QString#uses

It can be tried out on https://codereview.qt-project.org after installing https://code.woboq.org/qt-gerrit.user.js which requires Greasmonkey for Firefox / Tampermonkey for Chrome. A bit more detail about the integration is at http://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/development/2016-May/025733.html and the about the code browser at https://woboq.com/codebrowser.html .

Do you think this would help with productivity in code review making it worth taking the time installing it? The installation instructions are at https://github.com/woboq/woboq_codebrowser/blob/master/README.md
