Application domain: component measurement
Description:
CodeCheck [Code95] is a programmable metric tool for the source code analysis of C and C++ software. It requires the implementation of a control program specifying the algorithms for the calculation of the targeted metrics. CodeCheck supplies a set of predefined variables representing basic attributes of a program (e.g.number of lines containing statements, 12 variables for different conceptions of LOC etc.). A specification language that is closely related to C allows to interpret these values for the individual needs of the user. Thus it would misleading to understand CodeCheck exclusively as a metric tool. It can also be used for:
- the surveillance of programming conventions
- the surveillance of portability criteria
The flexibilty of CodeCheck is a great advantage for individual size and complexity measurement though the configuration requirements for user-defined metrics might be time-consuming.
Supported languages: C, C++
Special features:
- very flexible tool for the definition and the application of metrics
Requirements: DOS |
