GNOCCHI - A COMPLEXITY ANALYSER FOR C++

Gnocchi calculates cyclomatic and the NPATH complexity measures.

USES

boost.graph
boost.program_options
boost.filesystem

DESCRIPTION

It reads the coverage information produced by GCC and determines the
complexity of all functions. If code is compiled with -fprofile-arcs
or -ftest-coverage (depending on compiler version) GCC creates a .gcno
file for every object file.

example:
     gcc -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage -c test_input.c
     ./gnocchi --threshold 4 test_input.gcno

     outputs:
     test_input.c:118: mccabe=5 npath=5
     test_input.c:89: mccabe=5 npath=16
     test_input.c:67: mccabe=9 npath=80
