Lexient today reintroduced Surveyor to thousands of developers that had previously used the language and platform independent code analyzer on other operating systems such as HP-UX, IRIX, SunOS, Solaris or Windows. Linux has become one of the most popular operating system destinations for source code migrations, leading Lexient to introduce this version. Surveyor is the most comprehensive code analyzer suite for multi-language, multi-operating system code, providing unparalleled support for reverse engineering, redesign, migration, and general maintenance projects.

Industrial Strength Code Analyzer
Originally created to understand the impact of Y2K code changes, Surveyor’s technology allows developers to work with code in many legacy and modern languages, compilers, and operating systems to enhance developer’s code quality and effectiveness. Whether you’re redesigning code that your team wrote months ago, or migrating code your team never saw, Surveyor can help to rapidly untangle the complex interactions and relationships present in your code.

Language & Platform Generic
Supporting over 23 compilers and targets, dozens of languages, and with the release of the Linux version, all of the operating systems typically used for software development, Surveyor provides a powerful tool to the team working across languages or platforms. Surveyor analyzes code based upon the compiler and target specified. It then builds a team-sharable meta-database that allows developers to exchange information and ideas about the code in such a way that project timelines can be compressed by up to 40%.

Real Time Information
Surveyor provides team members with a means of automatically generating UML, Visio, and other models of their project. Metrics, flow charts, and cross-reference diagrams are also created and updated in near real time based upon changes to the code in the project. Profiler, code coverage, and optimization information can be imported into the project so you can rapidly see and unsnarl bottlenecks and other performance problems.

With Surveyor’s newest version, Lexient provides Linux developers with an unparalleled analysis capability which will compress development timelines and improve code quality.
