Abstract :
In this paper, we describe restructuring of C code into new C++ classes. Such restructuring is done to facilitate both software reuse and software evolution. The restructuring is accomplished by restructuring tools and scenarios. We discuss the transformation tool-set and the design of the individual tools. The approach is demonstrated on a case study We also discuss how this tool-set could be enhanced in the future
