Hi all,
I am a PhD student at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. As part of my research I have performed an empirical study on a large corpus of open-source Java software. If you are a developer of Hibernate you might be interested to know that there are 618 source files all involved in one big dependency cycle (or to use the graph theory term, strongly connected component). In any case, a comparison in terms of compilation dependencies between Hibernate and all the other applications in the corpus (e.g. Eclipse, Netbeans, Azureus, ArgoUML, Ant, POI, Tomcat, Spring, and many, many more) is available on my webpage. Also available an explanation of the results and the tool I used to collect the data. http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~hayden/corpus.htm / Hayden Melton _______________________________________________ hibernate-devel mailing list hibernate-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/hibernate-devel
