Those are probably caused by an issue in your project setup, but I don't think that this is the right place to go into details. If you like to investigate, please send us an e-mail!

thanks for your quick reply, I'll send you a mail later after my investigation

#105Not saying this is bad, but...
Instead of giving money to a tool like this, you could just use ctags/etags, both of which are Free Software. It doesn't show detailed graphs like Sourcetrail does, but it allows source code traversal by function definitions, and supports a crapton of languages.

#106That looks amazing. Does it also work with Objective-C ?
No, not yet. There is a feature request: https://github.com/CoatiSoftware/SourcetrailBugTracker/issue...

#107Can you please share the roadmap for adding new language support?
To be honest: We have not decided what language we will pick up next. Our first priority is to improve on our Java coverage. In a few months we should be ready to choose our next language. We are thinking about either tackling Python or implement support for a more recent language like Kotlin, Swift or Go.
I might buy this for Go if it was available, this looks interesting!
Note that I'm mainly interested because my current editor of choice does not have the full suite of tools I'm used to for Go. I used to use Vim, and vim-go has such an excellent suite of tools I don't think I'd buy this. However, I've since switched to Kakoune, and the tool support is quite young and I've not had time to improve it myself. So this tool (at the $100 self employment pricing) is a nice fit for a tool I'm on the fence about. At $200 I don't think I would, but at $100 I think I would.
Anyway, just providing a bit of feedback. Looks really nice!

Thank you for sharing your opinion! This will be exactly what we will be interested in when deciding what language to tackle next :)

I know it's easier said than done, but a pluggable interface for community created language support would go a long way towards gaining traction.

#110Has anyone run a large codebase like chromium with this tool? Is the indexing looking at what's compiled like libclang or is it static like gtags?
Pretty sure it's compiled,I tried it out and it took a while to process on code that ggtags parses in seconds.
