visualize c++ data structure

I am looking for a program to help me debug a tree in c++. My tree has thousands of nodes and I want to view the tree as it forms and view problem nodes and branches. Operating system doesn't matter. Anyone know of a program that can do this?

I have written a library called DSViz which is used to do this job. You can find it here: https://github.com/sunxfancy/DSViz

You need to write a few lines of code to use the API to generate a graphviz file so that you can draw the figure using addition tools.

The only practical way I know is to write your own ! A good design solution is to implement a visitor design pattern. Then you can have different visitor like :

  • a print visitor, that print your tree in the console (not practical as you say you have a lot of nodes)
  • a serialize visitor : It will write your tree in a file.

You can then "debug" by calling the appropriate visitor at key points.

Don't know what platform you are at, but DDD is pretty good with this, though can't say anything about its performance on huge sets.
