New port: Understand can parse a C/C++ project helping reverse engineer it [begin snip from the www site] Understand parses any sized C or C++ project to help you reverse engineer, document and understand it and thus maintain it better. It supports K&R C, ANSI C, or C++ source code. Projects can contain mixed C/C++ code as well. The parser is efficient, fast, and can handle very large projects. Very little is needed to get started - just aim it at your source tree. Optionally (and for more parsing accuracy) add any externally defined macro definitions and include paths. All of this is done from the GUI - you should be able to do an initial analysis of your project in a few minutes. Understand for C++ quickly documents Class inheritance hierarchies (Base Class and Derived Classes), Call and CallBy Trees, Include and Include By Trees, as well as where and how everything in your source code is used (cross reference). Understand for C++ creates detailed automatic documentation about your source code in HTML and text reports Using the PERL and C API you can write your own documentation generators. [end snip from the www site] You need a limited time period license to run the product in evaluation mode. One can be obtained in the www site. A permanent license can be purchased there too. - Instalation issues: This port has a hardcoded directory structure which is required to run it. Therefore, some measures are necessary to install it under FreeBSD following handbook rules' 1) All files but binaries are installed according to hier(7) 2) A fake structure is created under ${PREFIX}/lib/understand_c to please the program and soft links are made there to the correct locations under hier(7) 3) The binaries are installed under ${PREFIX}/lib/understand_c/bin and a wrapper is installed under ${PREFIX}/bin pointing to the fake structure 4) Since a license is required to run the program, warnings are issued when either it is installed or a package is added 5) Since the legal status is still being debated with the developers, it will be marked as RESTRICTED for the time being and LEGAL will be updated accordingly

Understand for C and C++ can't be used without a license code.
You need a limited time period license to run the product in
evaluation mode. One can be obtained in the www site.
A permanent license can be purchased there, too.
The Understand_c program will try to write a license file under
/usr/local/share/understand_c/license when you register it.
Registration instructions:
1) Make sure that the user running Understand_c when entering the
registration code has proper permissions to create files under
/usr/local/share/understand_c/license when your register it.
Understand_c will try to create a file under this directory to save
the registration information. This applies for both evaluation and
permanent licenses.
2) Verify that the files created under
/usr/local/share/understand_c/license are accessible by all users
who will be using Understand_c. Usually ''chmod -R a=r+X
/usr/local/share/understand_c/license'' will do.
