New page

NassiShneiderman plugin allows the creation of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nassi%E2%80%93Shneiderman_diagram Nassi Shneiderman diagrams] within Code::Blocks.

=Create a diagram=
There are two possibilities to create a diagram.
# To create an empty diagram select the menu options "File"->"New"->"Nassi Shneiderman diagram".
# The second option creates a diagram from C/C++ source code.

In an editor window highlight some code to create the diagram from. For example the body of a function/method from the opening braces till the closing brace. Then right click the selection and choose "Nassi Shneiderman"->"create diagram".

You should get a new diagram:<br />

The parser has some limitations:
* Comments can not be at the end of a branch.
* From a definition of a function it is only able to parse the body, not the declaration.
* For sure, you will find a lot more...

=Editing structograms=

=What to do with a diagram?=
You can do a lot of things with a structogram:
# Store for later usage. The diagram can be stored "File"->"Save file" or "File"->"Save file as...".
# It is possible to export to different formats "File"->"Export"->
#* "Export source..." to save as C source file.
#* "StrukTeX" to use in your documentation in LaTeX.
#* "PNG" or "PS" and eventually "SVG" to have a diagram in an image format known by a lot of other tools.
# Directly insert the code into the editor: Open or create a diagram. Back in an editor window right click and choose "Nassi Shneiderman"->"insert from xy" (You get a list with all open diagrams here).
# Drag'n'Drop the diagram (or parts of it) to other tools. For example to OpenOffice Writer to get an image in your documentation.

If the choosen diagram has a selection, the export or code-generation takes only this part of the diagram.

=Extensions=
The NassiShneiderman plugin supports some extensions of Nassi-Shneiderman diagrams:
# break has a special brick with an "right-arrow"
# continue has a special brick with a "left-arrow"
# To be able to create diagrams from c/c++ switch statements, the selection does not implicitely break before a case. The different cases are vertically aligned.
