Any Static Code Analysis Tools for Stored Procedures? [closed]

Answer 1

For T-SQL, Microsoft has the database edition of VS Team Suite (although, I believe its now in the dev SKU). This link talks about writing your own static code analysis rule for T-SQL: http://blogs.msdn.com/gertd/archive/2009/01/01/creating-t-sql-static-code-analysis-rules.aspx

Our SD Source Code Search Engine is a tool for interactively searching large source code bases in many computer languages (including PL/SQL) efficiently, by preindexing the source code files by their tokens (identifiers, numbers, etc). As a side effect of the preindexing step, it computes standard metrics: SLOC, Cyclomatic, Halstead, ... for each file and produces a report. See the site for an example.

Our SD CloneDR is a tool for analyzing large code bases for redundant code. We've applied it to PL/SQL, and have seen something like 45% of the code involved in clones. YMMV. The CloneDR works with a large variet of langauges; see the site for sample clone detection runs on some of those other langauges.

EDIT 10/4/2010:

Our Source Code Search Engine is designed to enable very fast searches across large codes of mixed languages. It succeeds by preindexing the source code. As a side effect of the indexing step, it compute a variety of metrics including Cyclomatic and Halstead measures of complexity.

Just added: not a static analysis tool, but one generally of interest to people interested software quality: our TestCoverage for PLSQL stored procedures.

Not that I'm aware of. Regardng PL/SQL, since Oracle doesn't expose much of their PL/SQL compilation engine its hard to find tool support.

The most I've been able to do is to query the data dictionary to do things like map the package dependencies.
