EZ-Metrix for Windows?

After 6 years in the field, EZ-Metrix v4.1 has produced many comments from over 500 users. Now, finally we're considering taking action on these comments.
What's on the drawing board? A version of EZ-Metrix for Windows.
This "v5.0" will incorporate many of the features our users have been asking for:
1. Run locally, with no need to connect to the internet to measure source code.
2. Support more programming languages.
3. Support languages with complex rules (e.g., PHP).
4. Ability to delete individual reports (Admin only).
5. Support languages with multiple comment delimiters (e.g., JSP).
6. Improve the difference threshold from characters to percent.
7. Repair defects in the comparison algorithms.
If you have additional requested improvements for EZ-Metrix, let us know! We'll do our best to include as many as possible.

EZ-Metrix measures Google's Go language

Several news stories emerged recently about Google's programming language called Go. Although Go has been around since 2007, it has gained credibility recently because of it's fast compilation, automatic semicolon insertion, multi-core CPU support and relatively simple syntax.

Background:

According to Wikipedia: "Go is a compiled, garbage-collected, concurrent programming language developed by Google Inc. The initial design of Go was started in September 2007 by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson. Go was officially announced in November 2009. In May 2010, Rob Pike publicly stated that Go was being used "for real stuff" at Google. Go's "gc" compiler targets theLinux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Microsoft Windows operating systems and the i386, AMD64, and ARM processor architectures."

Hello World sample code:

package main   

import "fmt" //text formatting package   

func main() {         

 fmt.Println("Hello, World") 

 }

Go and EZ-Metrix:

Because the Go language specification defines both a single-line comment delimiter (//) and a multi-line comment delimiter set (/*, */), EZ-Metrix has no trouble measuring the size of Go source code.

Conclusions:

If you're using Go on your next programming assignment (or inherited someone else's Go source), "Go" ahead and measure its size with EZ-Metrix. A free evaluation of EZ-Metrix is available at www.ez-metrix.com.

Mil & Aero Magazine features EZ-Metrix

In a July 5, 2011 article, author John Keller lists the company that invented EZ-Metrix^®, James Heires Consulting, Inc. in an article about software verification tools.

"Because code counters like EZ-Metrix are routinely used in highly analytical tasks such as software verification, it stands to reason that the Military and Aerospace industries are interested in EZ-Metrix", said President James Heires, PMP.

EZ-Metrix to be featured on Quality Conversations

Steve Wilson, a colleague and fellow measurement practitioner, hosts a radio program called Quality Conversations: The Global Voice of Quality. Mr. Wilson's program is available on the Blog Talk Radio website. Steve has hosted many notable experts in the quality industry in the past, and hosts a website called Quality By Design.

Now, EZ-Metrix gets the spotlight, in a show entitled EZ-Metrix: A Web-Based Code Counting Utility. Steve and I will discuss software quality, how metrics can support a software quality initiative, and why software size measurement is missing from most Fortune 500 companies' Key Performance Indicators. And finally, how EZ-Metrix can help to fill the void left by these complex industry dynamics.

This is a recorded show, and is available for immediate download here.

Looking forward to your comments, questions and quality conversations.

Regards,
James
