Hi all, is anybody still using the (http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/jspwiki/trunk/.externalToolBuilders/) the Eclipse metrics plugin (http://sourceforge.net/projects/metrics/), Harry placed it in about 15 months ago. It tells us things like how many lines of code per method and how many methods in a class. It hasn't been updated since 2005 (http://sourceforge.net/projects/metrics/files/?source=navbar) but reader comments appear to indicate it still works.

I'd like to remove it from our SVN because I doubt many are using it and because it's Eclipse-specific and hence can't be a required part of our build. (I use JEdit now for JSPWiki, as Eclipse is overkill for me, and many devs are now on IDEA.) Eclipse devs can still run the tool if they wish, it just won't be configured OOTB on an svn checkout anymore. I think CXF defines, besides checkstyle, another tool in its Maven script called PMD which provides more rigorous checking if we'd like to incorporate that into our build in an IDE-independent manner.

Regards,
Glen
