TOP_COMPONENTS_BY_PROPERTIES

Updated in 1.12.0

List of top components by properties

Can be used to replace CED reports :

• Top cyclomatic complexity x High Fan Out
• Top cyclomatic complexity x Low documentation

This component is only relevant on an engineering database. It is empty on an analytics database.

CAST-RestAPI 1.8.0

• PROP1 = name of first property, cyclomaticComplexity if not exists
• PROP2 = name of second property, fanOut if not exists
• ORDER1 = asc or desc for PROP1, desc by default (optional)
• ORDER2 = asc or desc for PROP2, desc by default (optional)
• COUNT = the number of lines to display, 50 by default (-1 or all is not allowed, it will take too much time and paper) (optional)
• LOWER1 = components should have prop1 value lower than this value (optional)
• GREATER1 = components should have prop1 value greater than this value (optional)
• LOWER2 = components should have prop2 value lower than this value (optional)
• GREATER2 = components should have prop2 value greater than this value (optional)
• NBSET=500 (number of the initial set of object before filtering) (optional)

For PROP1 and PROP2, the available values are :

• codeLines,
• commentedCodeLines,
• commentLines,
• coupling,
• fanIn,
• fanOut,
• cyclomaticComplexity,
• ratioCommentLinesCodeLines,
• halsteadProgramLength,
• halsteadProgramVocabulary,
• halsteadVolume,
• distinctOperators,
• distinctOperands,
• integrationComplexity,
• essentialComplexity

If PROP1 and/or PROP2 is not correctly set,list of available values is displayed

When using LOWER and GREATER parameters, the ORDER parameter can be overridden to get the most accurate components corresponding to the request.
As the filter can be done only after requesting data from the RestAPI, the list can be truncated. So the option NBSET define the number of objects returns from the rest api before the filtering and the limitation of display (COUNT), this option is set to 500 by default, to avoid too long server response time.

TABLE;TOP_COMPONENTS_BY_PROPERTIES;
PROP1=cyclomaticComplexity,
PROP2=ratioCommentLinesCodeLines,
ORDER1=desc,ORDER2=asc,COUNT=10

In the following example, we will ask for 10000 rows to the CAST-RestAPI order by PROP1 desc and PROP2 asc (because of lower), then we filter this list to take only those that have the ratioComment lower than 0.10, then we display only the 100 first in the list. (the more the set is, the longer it takes to get values from the rest api) :

• COUNT=N where N indicate the number of the top N,
• PAR=BC-ID where BC-ID indicate the id of the business criterion

• COUNT=N where N indicate the number of the top N,
• PAR=BC-ID where BC-ID indicate the id of the business criterion

• COUNT=N where N indicate the number of the top N

• COUNT=N where N indicate the number of the top N

This component is only relevant on an engineering database. It is empty on an analytics database.

• SRC= PERF| ROB|SEC : indicates the searched business criterion type
• MOD=N where N indicates the searched result will be applied on the module identified by this Id, and on the entire snapshot if this value isn’t indicated
• COUNT=N where N indicates the top N number ; default value = 10

• SRC=PERF|ROB|SEC : indicates the transaction type where top riskiest transactions will be searched
• COUNT=N where N indicates the top N number ; default value = 10

• HEADER=SHORT (here HEADER=SHORT) Indicates that short headers will be shown, obviously long headers will be shown

• BCID= list of ids of business criterion, separated by | : 60011|60012|60013|60014|60016|60017 one or several ; default value = 60016 (Security)
• COUNT=N|ALL where N indicates the top N number ; default value = 10 (ALL for all violations)
• NAME=FULL|SHORT to display short name or full name of objects (full name by default)
• FILTER=ADDED|UNCHANGED|UPDATED|ALL to filter the list by the violation status; default is ALL
• VIOLATIONS=CRITICAL|ALL by default, only CRITICAL violations are listed
• MODULE=ModuleName, parameter used to restrict the list for one module, by default violation are listed for the application
• TECHNOLOGIES=techno1|techno2, parameter used to restrict the list of violations, by default all technologies

• MODULES=1|0 to display violations for the whole application (=0 by default) or per modules (=1)
• CRITICAL=1|0 to include critical violations (=1 by default) or not (=0)
• NONCRITICAL=1|0 to include the non-critical violations (=1) or not (=0 by default)
• GRADE=1|0 to show (=1 by default) or hide (=0) the “Grade” column - TOTAL=1|0 to show (=1 by default) or hide (=0) the “Total Checks” column
• FAILED=1|0 to show (=1) or hide (=0 by default) the “Failed Checks” column
• SUCCESSFUL=1|0 to show (=1) or hide (=0 by default) the “Successful Checks” column
• ADDEDREMOVED=1|0 to show (=1) or hide (=0 by default) the “Added” and “Removed” columns
