code-analysis

If I run phploc against one of my PHP project (open source) I see this output. phploc 1.6.4 by Sebastian Bergmann. Directories: 3 Files: 33 Lines of Code (LOC): 2358 Cyclomatic Complexity / Lines of Code: 0.08 Comment Lines of Code (CLOC): 903 Non-Comment Lines of Code (NCLOC): 1455 Namespaces: 0 Interfaces: 3 Classes: 28 Abstract: 1 (3.57%) Concrete: 27 (96.43%) Average Class Length (NCLOC): 49 Methods: 149 Scope: Non-Static: 128 (85.91%) Static: 21 (14.09%) Visibility: Public: 103 (69.13%) Non-Public: 46 (30.87%) Average Method Length (NCLOC): 9 Cyclomatic Complexity / Number of Methods: 1

I have couple of areas in my application where I get the error while manipulating value of static variable from instance method. "Write to static field from instance method" . If we take multi-threading out of the equation, does this scenario pose any potential issue even if multiple instances write to the same static variable ? Not a bug From the documentation... This instance method writes to a static field. This is tricky to get correct if multiple instances are being manipulated, and generally bad practice. Firstly it says that it is a bad practice , not incorrect. Second thing is the

Is there a quick way to find all the commented-out code across Java files in Eclipse? Any option in Search, perhaps, or any add-on that can do this? It should be able to find only code which is commented out, but not ordinary comments. Sonar can do it: http://www.sonarsource.org/commented-out-code-eradication-with-sonar/ Scott Merritt In Eclipse, I just do a file search with the regular expression checkbox turned on: (/\*.*;.*\*/)|(//.*;) It will find semicolons in // These; and /* these; */ Works for me. You can mark your own commented code with a task tag. You can create your own task tags

It sometimes happens that I need to change the behavior of a function. Is there an easy way to find functions (on the matlab path) that use that function? The way I do this is to look for files that contain the name of the function I'm interested in. Thus, I don't only see who calls my function, but also what signature they use. In the editor: Edit->Find Files Start with help deprpt . EDIT: when I run a dependency report there are 3 checkboxes at the top of the report window. One of these, by default unchecked, is called 'Show parent functions (current folder only)'. That is probably the

I want to generate Full and Partially Call Trees from cscope database of c and c++ projects in Linux. The project is rather large, so it can be not easy to work with the full call tree of project, so I want to limit call tree generation with grep-like filter of function names. And also I want to be able to build "called by" and "called from" sub-trees from any point. So tool must be interactive and easy to patch. PS: I want use cscope database, because it is already used in project and generating of it is rather fast. I use vim editor and have X windows system. There is cbrowser program on

By default, code analysis is only done for projects which are compiled. So when I run MSBuild from the command line, it runs code analysis only for the first time. On subsequent calls, code analysis is skipped. Background: I want to evaluate CA rules and see how many warnings there would be in our code when turning on a rule. For that I don't want to recompile everything - which takes some time - but just re-run the code analysis. How can you achieve this? I am using Visual Studio 2013 and MSBuild 12.0. Even explicitely switching on code analysis does not help: msbuild DesktopBuild.proj /p

I wish to get a quick feeling for how much “copy and paste” coding we have, there are many tools for C# / Java to check for this type of thing. Are there any such tools that work well with VB.NET? (I have seen what looks like lots of repeated code, but wish to get some number to help me make a case for sorting it out) Update on progress. I have just tried Simian. It does not seem to be able to produce a nicely formatted report I can sent by email It does not cope when the names of local variables, or parameters etc may have been changed, e.g it just matches on lines of text being the same.

I'm looking for a code duplication tool that is language agnostic. It's easy to find language specific code duplication tools (for Java, C, PHP, ...), but I'd like to run some code duplication analysis on a templates in a custom syntax. I don't care about advanced parsing of the syntax, just straight line based raw string comparison is fine. Whitespace insensitive matching would be a plus, but not required. (It's not that hard to normalize/eliminate whitespace myself.) Does anybody know a tool that can be (mis)used for something like this? Thanks. Doon Have a look Simian , you can use it for
