Abstract :
Source Viewer 3D (sv3D) is a software visualization tool, based on a 3D extension of the file map metaphor. Sv3D has been developed as an independent visualization front end that represents source code and associated metrics as 3D metaphors, namely containers and poly cylinders. We developed a new version of sv3D as an Eclipse plug-in. Most of the functionality of the original tool is preserved, while new features are added. This tool demonstration will focus on the new features as well as on the benefits that the integration with Eclipse brings, such as, improved usability and integration with other plug-ins.
