2. Compiling and testing the SDMetrics Open Core sources

To compile and test the SDMetrics Open Core, you will need

a Java SE 8 Development Kit,
Ant 1.8 or later,
JUnit 4.12 or later

and be familiar with running Ant.

To compile the sources, run the target "compile" of the Ant build.xml script. The class files will be placed in a new directory "bin".

To test the SDMetrics Open Core, run the target "test" of the Ant build.xml script. This will compile the source and its JUnit test classes to "bin", and run all the JUnit test cases. A protocol of the test run will be stored in a new directory "testout". Note that JUnit must be included in Ant's class path to execute the JUnit tests. There are several ways to accomplish this, please consult the Ant Manual.

To get acquainted with the SDMetrics Open Core API, check out the Javadocs that come with this distribution. The package summaries include tutorials how to programmatically parse an XMI file of a UML model, calculate the metrics, and check the design rules.

Note: The SDMetrics default project files (meta model definitions, XMI transformations, metric definitions) are located in folder src/com/sdmetrics/resources.
