Hi,
I am doing some tests with all those nice code quality metrics built in in the code inspector. By design of the code inspector, I get a hierarchical (or tabular) list of messages for code objects differing somehow from an expected "norm".
This makes it difficult to evaluate if I do an evaluation over all custom code, since the log will contain thousands of messages. If this is the only way of getting an output from the code metric classes, a tedious post processing is required: Either I'll have to extract the numbers I am interested in with pattern search from the textual output, or I have to look for the database tables containing the results, extracting the right message variables which contain the metric.
What I am looking for is not messages but a tabular result representation, which for each code object simply lists the code quality numbers - in an ALV grid or something similar:
ex. stmts Halstead metric cyclometric complexity nesting depth Halstead's volume ...
...
Method ZCL_TEST->DO 53 102 200 4 2'011
Method ZCL_TEST->PUT 10 11 12 3 2'012
...
Does anyone know of such a tool? I have sen that for each test there is a class, like CL_CI_TEST_METRIC_NOES, which actually computes the metric. Is there some other framework making use of these classes? Or is SCI the only way to access them? (Meaning that I am damned to eat the "message-style" output of SCI).
Regards,
Rüdiger
P.S.: Switching the radiobutton from "Show Messages" to "Show Metric" is no solution. I still get messages as result (1000s of info messages, instead of warnings for only those code objects which pass the thresholds).
P.P.S.: I only see the way to write a report extracting the data from database table SCIREST_PS and putting them into the desired form. But maybe somebody has a solution for this already.
