GrammaTech and Lattix Introduce Product Integration
Deep source code analysis enhances architecture management for complex C/C++ systems
ITHACA, NY—February 21, 2011—GrammaTech, Inc., a leading manufacturer of source-code-analysis tools, and Lattix Inc., a leading provider of innovative software architecture management solutions, today announced the availability of an integration between GrammaTech CodeSonar and Lattix LDM. The new CodeSonar integration with Lattix provides precise and accurate architecture analysis to enable teams to review, refactor, and maintain the architecture of complex C/C++ software systems.
The Lattix CodeSonar integration loads the data from CodeSonar's deep source code analysis to enable users to analyze the relationships between the contents of the C/C++ files. This capability to explore dependencies between functions, variables, class methods, fields and macros significantly improves impact analysis and support for refactoring initiatives. Users can conduct impact analysis on defects identified by CodeSonar, utilizing impact tags and reports to identify those parts of the architecture which could be affected directly or indirectly by changes in the code to fix the defects.
GrammaTech will be demonstrating the integration at Embedded World 2011 in Nuremberg, Germany, March 1-3, Hall 11, Booth 11/11-335.
"The complementary analyses performed by Lattix and CodeSonar provide users with information that makes it easy to understand and manage dependencies," said Mark Zarins, vice president of products at GrammaTech.
"Our integration with CodeSonar addresses the need for a more complete and scalable solution for complex C/C++ systems" explains Frank Waldman, vice president and co-founder of Lattix. "Our mutual customers can now quickly achieve measurable results at any stage of development by understanding and improving the architecture, eliminating bad dependencies, expediting refactoring efforts, and reducing defects."
