Ok - the first thing to bear in mind is that reverse-engineering using the
analyser is very similar to compiling the application.  You need to make
sure all the search paths for include files are set up, and -D symbol
definitions are set (this could cause your classes to be missed). and that
all the files you want to work on appear in the Files section of the
analyser project dialog.

[Actually - the reverse-engineering process is very tolerant of all kinds of
errors including missing code, missing #includes, etc]

Then - reverse-engineer the code.

The next step is creating a model file from this process - use the
DetailedAnalysis settings to do the export - this will cover pretty much all
of your code.

What kind of classes are missing?  Are you sure they are not in the model
(try an Edit->Find in Rose)?

You may also want to talk to support about all this - they could probably
isolate the problem a little quicker than I could.

You can ignore warnings along the lines of "could not find definition for X"
if you are not interested in these classes.  If you found the warnings or
errors said something about missing include files - put the right path in
your "Directories" section so Rose can find the #include files.

Finally - try selecting all the files and do an Actions->Delete Data in the
Analyser.  This will force the analyser to re-examine all files.
