Imagix 4D

Imagix 4D was a software analysis tool developed by Imagix Corporation. It was primarily designed to help software engineers understand, document, and maintain complex or unfamiliar C, C++, and Java codebases. The tool provided a variety of static analysis features, including call graphs, data flow diagrams, class hierarchies, and control flow graphs. These visualizations aimed to make the structure and behavior of software systems more accessible and understandable.

Imagix 4D allowed users to explore relationships between different parts of the code, identify potential problems, and improve overall code quality. It supported several software engineering tasks, such as impact analysis (determining the effects of a code change), reverse engineering (understanding existing code), and code modernization (improving code structure and maintainability).

The software facilitated the creation and editing of software documentation through its analysis and visualization capabilities. The tool was also used to identify dead code, redundant code, and other code smells. Imagix 4D targeted development teams working on large and complex software projects where understanding the code's inner workings was critical for successful maintenance and evolution. The Imagix Corporation was acquired, and the product is no longer actively developed or supported.
