http://metrics.sourceforge.net

I just released version 1.3, with the following changes:

* Use JDBM instead of Prevayler, resulting in a dramatic reduction of memory
footprint for large projects,
* Customizable colors (I had no idea how important this can be in the
context of OSs color themes :-),
* Checked menu item in projects popup,
* Now properly renders and exports the default package as "(default
package)" instead of an empty string,
* various bugfixes and performance enhancements

Enjoy,

Frank

As a potential user (the plugin is still calculating the metrics for my
project), I'd like to give a first feature request. Several other people
have already been looking for something that indicates "use counts" of
packages, classes and public members. That would make it really easier
to clean up a project.

Mabe it's worth a separate plugin, but wouldn't it be nice to see those
"use counts" or a gaphical decorator for 0 uses of a package or class in
the the packages view?

At the package level that would be the afferent coupling metric already
provided.
In case of problematic (cyclic) package dependencies, the dependency graph
view can expand the detail to the class level.

This sounds like a find idea, but I'd want it to incorporate support for
fully qualified class path references from XML files as a usage.
Otherwise, many of the classes in Struts package might show up as 'un
referenced'.

then Window->Show View->Other...->Dependency Graph View, and a window comes
up but it's blank.

Any suggestions?

Thank you,
Mike.

Wow! Congratulations to that good work! Eclipse has thrown JBuilder from
my desktop, and now it's more and more coming at Together (I'm not too
happy with the UML support, yet, though... guess that's Together's last
chance) ;-)

This plugin rocks!!!

You need to start it from the other view's (with the tree table) toolbar.
I could not figure out how *not* to list the view in the view selection
dialog :-(

Frank,
I don't know of a way to make it not show up in the views menu (not sure
that's a good idea really) but instead of a blank window, how about you
display a message there like the Hierarchy window does. In that view, if no
type is selected it says:

"To display the type hierarchy, select a type (for example in the outline
view or in ethe editor), and select the 'Open Type Hierarchy' menu option.
Alternatively, you can drag and drop an element (e.g. project, package,
type) onto this view."

I found the blank window confusing too so I think this would help.
Cheers,
--Ed

Hey,

I had the same problem when starting to use Frank's plugin. What a brilliant
solution Ed.

Best regards.
