Source Code Database

Hi,

for a small group of C-programmers I'm searching a source code database, which is capable to handle the following itmes:

tree view of all available functions
view a function
description of the selected function
copy the source code of a function (cut & paste)
easy to add an entry (function, description, date, version etc.)
multi user access
free (GPL ....)

That should be enough for our first try.
I hope that aren't too much requirements.

I suggest a CVS backend with Cervisia front end. There are other GUI tools to put in front of CVS. CVS is the de facto standard tool for source code management.

Only for legacy projects that are already using CVS. For new projects, Subversion has largely supplanted CVS - which is not surprising, since that was the entire point of Subversion . In fact, many projects that were previously using CVS (KDE, for example) have since migrated to Subversion.

Not that any of that matters, since neither CVS nor Subversion are even remotely close to what the original poster was asking for. I don't know of any tools like that myself.

To be a little bit clearly with my description, I'm searching a code-snippets database, where someone can leave a snip of code with description etc.

What's the correct term for this? It's not a cvs or similar version control system.

koders.com is very useful, but it's an online database. My imagination is an offline database, usable in a network, where only approx 5 persons have access. I found several of these snippets databases, but this is only Windows stuff.

If you want, take a look:

CodeBank, database for code snippets, http://www.snapfiles.com/get/codebank.html
CodeWarehouse 1.0, http://www.xcca.com/
Dacris CodeSnip 1.0, http://www.freedownloadscenter.com/P..._CodeSnip.html
