    Does Qt provides a tool to graphically show the objects hierarchy ?
    Something similar to "include hierarchy ".

    For example to show this hierarchy / tree :

    mdiArea
    menu / action options
    selected menu object

    I rely on IntelliSense (SIC?) and it would help to know beforehand the "tree options".

      Qt is a c++ framework, so no. There might be a library from someone who can do such stuff with Qt but I doubt so.

        We do have such a tool. Requires an acceptable degree of manual work though. It’s totally free and called QTreeView ;-)

          There's a tool for runtime introspection: GammaRay (from KDAB). But that's not what you want, as far as can tell from your description. What you seem to be after is a static analysis tool, which I'm not aware of.

            @kshegunov Thanks for reply. Yes, I am looking for something "static".
            I basically build a task / sub-project and then I like to incorporate it into the main project. Knowing the overall "tree" of objects would help , mainly with implementing "connect" between objects.
            This "gamma" tool is interesting, however, my application will not require such dynamic management after I get the "skeleton structure " build.
