.NET Function Point Configuration - 1.1

Extension ID

com.castsoftware.dotnet.config.tcc

What’s new?

Introducing a brand-new extension dedicated to entry/exit definitions. In order to get accurate transactions with specific definition of entry/exit points and to avoid duplication across extensions.

This simplifies some transactions’ call graph, by removing:

• Entry/end points property on objects
• classes, methods, functions, interfaces objects that are not actual entry/end points

Example of simplification in a transaction

(Examples from Java, but it’s similar for .Net)

Entry point: on the right, the newly calculated transaction, with 2 nodes removed. The entry point is identified more precisely.

End point: on the right, the newly calculated transaction, with 2 nodes removed, and 3 methods whose end points have been deleted. Only the actual End point remains.
