There are several ways to generate make-compatible dependencies for C/C++ projects: <ul> <li><code>gcc -M</code>, which comes in several flavors and is sort of "the gold standard" in terms of accuracy, since it uses the actual compiler to generate the dependencies, and who would know better how to process <code>#include</code> statements than the compiler itself?</li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makedepend" rel="nofollow"><code>makedepend</code></a>, which is generally discouraged in favor of compiler-generated dependencies.</li> <li><a href="http://freecode.com/projects/fastdep" rel="nofollow"><code>fastdep</code></a>, another third-party dependency generator which purports to be faster than <code>gcc -M</code>.</li> <li><a href="http://www.electric-cloud.com/products/electricaccelerator-dev.php" rel="nofollow">ElectricAccelerator</a> has a built-in feature called autodep which uses the filesystem usage activity of the commands invoked in the build to generate dependency information. The advantage of autodep over the alternatives is that it is extremely fast and completely tool and programming language independent -- while the others are all tied to C/C++ or require the use of a specific compiler, autodep works with all types of build tools.</li> </ul> I did a <a href="http://www.electric-cloud.com/blog/2008/12/15/automatic-dependency-management-with-electricaccelerator/" rel="nofollow">performance comparison</a> of several of these options a while back. Disclaimer: I am the architect and lead developer of ElectricAccelerator.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
