Simian, a redundant code Check Tool

Kobe, a development example of Microsoft Web2.0, repeats the same mistakes of oxite. Ayende successively published five high-quality Kobe discussion posts:

• Kobe-in the nuts & bolts and don't really liking it
• Kobe-Data Access done wrong
• Kobe-when the documentation is the only delivery that matters
• Kobe-an example of exception handling done wrong
• Kobe-custom tural Overview

Ayende uses the simian tool to perform static analysis on the Code and finds that a total of 873 lines of code are duplicated in the 5138 methods in 67 files. Go to the topic and introduce simian, a redundant code check tool. The current version is 2.2.24. It is not only C # code, but also can be used to check C, C ++, COBOL, Ruby, code in JSP, ASP, HTML, XML, and Visual Basic formats. Simian is not a free tool. If you use it to check open-source code or non-commercial code, it is free to use. If it is a commercial application, you will have to pay for it.

Usage:

In this way, we can use simian as a command line tool. Run simian in cmd:

C: \> simian.exe [Options] files

The following describes how to use it:

• Check all C # files in subdirectories:

"-Supported des = *. cs"

• Check all the C # files in the current directory, and only check the repeated code with more than three lines of code.

-Threshold = 3 "*. cs"

• Check all C # files:

"*. Cs"

Using command line output is not very convenient for code locating, and you can use a tool named monkeywrangler written by Visual Studio's external tool (see http://blogs.conchango.com/howardvanrooijen/archive/2006/02/08/2776.aspx) or Howard van rooijen's. You can also integrate it into continuous integration.
