| description | Software metrics play a major role In the software
development. Not only software metrics help in understanding the
size and complexity of software systems, but they are also helpful
in improving the quality of software systems. For object-oriented
systems, a large number of metrics have been established. These
metrics should be supported by automated collection tools.
Automated tools are useful for measuring and improving the quality
of software systems. One such tool is a static analyser.
A static analyser has been developed for a subset of Java
language. A number of object-oriented software metrics has been evaluated using attribute grammar approach. Attribute grammar
approach is considered as a well-defined approach to the software
metrics evaluation since it is based on the measurement of the
source code itself. New definitions for a number of object-oriented
metrics have been specified using attribute grammars.
This tool has been built using C language. Lexical analyser
and syntax analyser have been generated using lex and yacc tools
under linux operating system. Four object-oriented metrics have
been evaluated. These metrics are Depth of Inheritance Tree metric,
Number of Children metric, Response For a Class metric, and
Coupling Between Object Classes metric. The software metrics will
be produced in the common metrics format that is used in SCOPE
project. |
