所以我们在项目中有这个巨大的mainmodule.cpp源文件(11000行很大吗?),每次我不得不触摸它时,我都会畏缩。
由于这个文件是如此的核心和大,它不断积累越来越多的代码,我想不出一个好方法来让它实际上开始缩小。
该文件在我们产品的几个(> 10)维护版本中被使用和积极更改,因此很难重构它。如果我“简单地”将其拆分为3个文件,那么从维护版本合并回更改将成为一场噩梦。而且,如果您拆分具有如此长而丰富历史的文件,跟踪和检查SCC历史中的旧更改突然变得非常困难。
这个文件基本上包含了我们程序的“主类”(主要的内部工作调度和协调),所以每次添加一个特性,它也会影响这个文件,每次它的增长。:-(
在这种情况下你会怎么做?关于如何在不打乱SCC工作流程的情况下将新特性移动到单独的源文件中,您有什么想法吗?
(注意:我们使用c++和Visual Studio;我们使用AccuRev作为SCC,但我认为SCC的类型在这里并不重要;我们使用Araxis Merge来做实际的文件比较和合并)
我不知道这是否解决了您的问题,但我猜您想要做的是将文件的内容迁移到彼此独立的更小的文件中(合计)。
我还了解到,你有大约10个不同版本的软件,你需要在不搞砸的情况下支持它们。
首先,这是不可能的简单,将解决自己在几分钟的头脑风暴。文件中链接的函数对应用程序都非常重要,简单地将它们删除并迁移到其他文件中并不能解决问题。
我认为你只有这些选择:
Don't migrate and stay with what you have. Possibly quit your job and start working on serious software with good design in addition. Extreme programming is not always the best solution if you are working on a long time project with enough funds to survive a crash or two.
Work out a layout of how you would love your file to look once it's split up. Create the necessary files and integrate them in your application. Rename the functions or overload them to take an additional parameter (maybe just a simple boolean?).
Once you have to work on your code, migrate the functions you need to work on to the new file and map the function calls of the old functions to the new functions.
You should still have your main-file this way, and still be able to see the changes that were made to it, once it comes to a specific function you know exactly when it was outsourced and so on.
Try to convince your co-workers with some good cake that workflow is overrated and that you need to rewrite some parts of the application in order to do serious business.
让我猜猜:10个拥有不同功能集的客户和一个提倡“定制化”的销售经理?我以前做过这样的产品。我们遇到了同样的问题。
您认识到拥有一个巨大的文件是很麻烦的,但更麻烦的是您必须保持10个版本的“最新”。这是多重维护。SCC可以使这更容易,但它不能使它正确。
Before you try to break the file into parts, you need to bring the ten branches back in sync with each other so that you can see and shape all the code at once. You can do this one branch at a time, testing both branches against the same main code file. To enforce the custom behavior, you can use #ifdef and friends, but it's better as much as possible to use ordinary if/else against defined constants. This way, your compiler will verify all types and most probably eliminate "dead" object code anyway. (You may want to turn off the warning about dead code, though.)
一旦所有分支隐式地共享了该文件的一个版本,那么就更容易开始使用传统的重构方法。
#ifdefs主要适用于受影响的代码只在其他分支自定义上下文中有意义的部分。有人可能会说,这也为相同的分支合并方案提供了机会,但不要太疯狂。一次只做一个大项目。
In the short run, the file will appear to grow. This is OK. What you're doing is bringing things together that need to be together. Afterwards, you'll begin to see areas that are clearly the same regardless of version; these can be left alone or refactored at will. Other areas will clearly differ depending on the version. You have a number of options in this case. One method is to delegate the differences to per-version strategy objects. Another is to derive client versions from a common abstract class. But none of these transformations are possible as long as you have ten "tips" of development in different branches.
我认为最好创建一组映射到mainmodule.cpp的API点的命令类。
一旦它们就位,您将需要重构现有的代码库,以通过命令类访问这些API点,一旦完成,您就可以自由地将每个命令的实现重构为新的类结构。
当然,对于一个11 KLOC的类,其中的代码可能是高度耦合和脆弱的,但是创建单独的命令类比任何其他代理/外观策略都更有帮助。
我并不羡慕这项任务,但随着时间的推移,如果不加以解决,这个问题只会变得更糟。
更新
我建议Command模式比Facade更可取。
在一个(相对)单一的Facade上维护/组织许多不同的命令类是可取的。将一个Facade映射到一个11 KLOC文件本身可能需要分解成几个不同的组。
为什么要费心去弄清楚这些门面组呢?使用命令模式,你将能够对这些小类进行有机分组和组织,因此你有更多的灵活性。
当然,这两种选择都比单一的11 KLOC和不断增长的文件要好。
