如何识别源代码中的所有 C++ 标准库调用？

Question

I want to get the information about how many kind of C++ standard library features are used in my application source code, eg, whether vector is used or some STL algorithm is used? For C library, I know that I can use objdump -T | grep GLIBC use objdump -T | grep GLIBC on the compiled binary as the post how to identify all libc calls at compile time? shows. But this method is not applicable for C++, eg, as the result of objdump -T | grep GLIBCxx objdump -T | grep GLIBCxx is not what I expect as below:

I think I can use libclang to static analyze the source code to get such information, but is there any other method? Thanks!

Answer 1

Many components of the C++ standard library are templates. Other non-template functions could be declared inline . In either case, there's no guarantee that there will be a call to a function visible in the assembly. The compiler could easily inline all of these, and there would be virtually no way to tell that this had happened.

Only analysis of the literal source text can tell you what you're looking for.
