#C++ Classes Analyzer

##About Script was implemented in Python3 as a school project. The script analyzes inheritance of classes written in simplified syntax for valid header files of C++11. The script creates inheritance tree or prints details about all members of a specified class.

##Input format C++ header file where classes are written in simplified syntax according these rules:

• in file only declaration/definition of classes and theirs members is allowed (including redefinitions and overloading class members)
• definition of a class is indicated by curly braces ({})
• class definition inside class is not allowed
• no command of preprocesor are occured in file, so definition of macros and includes of libraries is not possible
• declaration/definition of namespaces, templates or definitions of friend classes are not allowed
• no definitions of own operators are allowed in file
• files do not contain comments
• as data types are used only:
  • primitive data types
  • defined classes
  • pointers/referencies to these data types

##Output format Output of the script is XML file describing

• inheritance tree
• description all members (including inherited ones) of specified class

##Parameters

• --help
• --input=filename - input file, if this parameter is missing, input file is expected in standard input
• --output=filename - output file, if this parameter is missing, script output is printed to standard output
• --pretty-xml=k - indentation of output XML will be k spaces, if this parameter is missing, k=4
• --details=class - instead of inheritance tree, details about the class (all class when class is not specified) will be printed out
• --search=XPATH - result of XPATH search in original output will be printed out
• --conflicts - has to be used with --details, if a conflict turned out, script will not end with error code, conflict members will be printed in <conflicts> tag

##Returns

• 1 (wrong format of the parameters)
• 2 (input file does not exist or an error occured during openning an input file for reading)
• 3 (script can't open a file for writing, f.e. because of limited permissions)
• 4 (wrong format of an input file)
• 21 (conflict member found)

##Tests Tests are located in test directory. Tests check basic functionality. Jexamxml used for comparing two xml files is needed to download.
