Installing this plugin

This plugin is not shipped in any distribution. You must manually install it on an EasyEclipse distribution.

The dependent plugin Eclipse Java Development Tools must be present in the EasyEclipse distribution you use, or must be installed separately.

Getting started

To enable metrics measurements on a Java project, right-click on the project in the Package Explorer view, or the Navigator view, and select Properties. In the Properties dialog, select the Metrics tab, and check the Enable Metrics Gathering checkbox. Rebuild the project if it is not built automatically, using the menu Project > Build Project. Any potentially problematic measurements should appear in the Problems view.

• Failing:

  - file > new > project, Java > Java Project, give name, OK
          - file > new > File, give name "Main.java" selct parent folder (project name), OK
          - paste in file:
          public class Main {
          public static void main(String argv[]) {
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          System.out.println("Hello, World");
          }
          }
          - right-click on project, Properties > Metric, check the "Enable Metrics Gathering"
          - two warnings should appear in problem view:
          "Lines of Code in Method is 23"
