Is there a way to programmatically enumerate a namespace and its members in C++?
I have a large C++ program which utilizes several namespaces. I am unfamiliar with the codebase, and would like to determine which functions/classes/variables are associated with which namespaces.
My current approach involves simply removing the ‘using namespace’ directives one by one and checking what breaks during compilation, but I assume there is a much better way to achieve the same goal.
This is not possible in C++.
However, you can use external tools, such as Doxygen, that will create documentation (HTML, and other formats) that will list all the members of your namespaces.
