What is SourceMeter?
SourceMeter is an innovative tool built for the precise static source code analysis of C/C++, Java, C#, Python, and RPG projects. This tool makes it possible to find the weak spots of a system under development from the source code only, without the need of simulating live conditions. The tool integrates also the best of available free static checker tools (Cppcheck, PMD, FindBugs, FxCop,- Pylint) and presents their results in a unified way. Using the results of the analysis, the quality of the analyzed source code can be improved and developed both in the short– and long term in a directed way. Free version with limited functionality is available for all programming languages.
