It won't be used by programmers but would by QC/QA types to check and see if the code is being used or is just a bunch of fluff. One good example would be if your company is using outsourcing to do your programming and the outsource is getting paid on the amount of code they produce, instead of the correct way of getting paid on the quality of their code. You can check to see if all paths through the code are being used or not.

That being said, why not take an existing program that is fully developed and change the syntax to handle basic syntax. This way you do not have to develop the entire infastracture to run this tool. My suggestion is there are several open source plug-in for Eclipse that can be modified to handle code coverage. There are several examples like jcoverage or gcov that could be used for this type of project.

It is based on the prototype for a similar tool we now use at my current employer. Although this version is incomplete, it still enables statement level coverage for multiple programs/subroutine with html output. The "parser" (I really shouldn't use that term) is still quite primitive in this version and may not work with how some programs are coded. http://sourceforge.net/projects/ucov/ For a screen shot of the output and a short post about it, visit: http://u2tech.wordpress.com/ Regards, Dan _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
