development tools for interpreting code

[soraberri <421246@posta.unizar.es>]

Hi all,

In this stage of my learning I am basically trying to understand some 
code that others have develop. The code is about bluetooth tools but 
this is unrelevant at this moment. Rigth now I'm using Kdevelop for this 
task with the source that I want to understand loaded into a new 
project, and I always find the same problem which I will describe you in 
terms of an example:

at some point of the code I find a call to a function or a typedef name 
(for exmple str2ba) and I would like to find the header file or even the 
source file where this function (or type) is defined. I can only use the 
Grep:str2ba command found under "Find in files..." dialog but sometimes 
this is not suitable because I have to tell manually the path from the 
starting point of the search, and if I don't know exactly the rigth 
folder, the number of results searched can be too many for examining. I 
guess it may be a better way, since the program compiles and has the 
appropiate includes (#include <header>), so the compiler must know where 
the function is defined.

So, every suggestions would be wellcome,

thaks in advance
