I've never had occasion to use the call graphs (aka call hierarchy) in Eclipse before, but I had to make some small adjustments yesterday in some code I hadn't looked at in quite some time (although others have been making modifications).
Such a valuable tool!
I knew the bottleneck I was going to change, I just needed to track down all the places where it was being called and check the context to make sure I wasn't missing anything. The old fashion way would be to do a text search and manually eliminate the calls to other methods with a similar name. In this case, it was extremely straight forward, making the analysis portion of the task considerably easier.
The next time I need to do this the hard way for some other code I know I'm going to wish I could do it this easily again. I wonder if XCode 2.0 is going to have the ability to generate call graphs for Objective C code?
