File Level Metrics

Runtime Analysis

The Source Code Parsers provide static metrics for the analyzed C and C++ source
code.

File Level Metrics

The scope of the metrics report depends on the selection made in the Report Explorer
window. This can be a file, one or several classes or any other set of source code
components.

Comment only lines: the number of comment lines that do not contain any
source code

Comments: the total number of comment lines

Empty lines: the number of lines with no content

Source only lines: the number of lines of code that do not contain any comments

Source and comment lines: the number of lines containing both source code and
comments

Lines: the number of lines in the source file

Comment rate: percentage of comment lines against the total number of lines

Source lines: the total number of lines of source code and empty lines

File, Class or Package, and Root Level Metrics

These numbers are the sum of metrics measured for all the components of a given
file, class or package.

Total statements: total number of statement in child nodes

Maximum statements: the maximum number of statements

Maximum level: the maximum nesting level

Maximum V(g): the highest encountered cyclomatic number

Mean V(g): the average cyclomatic number

Standard deviation from V(g): deviation from the average V(g)

Sum of V(g): total V(g) for the scope.

Root Level File View

At the top of the Root page, the Metrics Viewer displays a graph based on Halstead
data.

On the Root page, the scope of the Metrics Viewer is the entire set of nodes below the
Root node.
