SC-Lers,

Hey, here's some good news out of Microsoft.  According to EWeek,  
"Now for Visual Studio 2008, Microsoft's code analysis team is adding  
some new features, including Code Metrics, a new tool window "that  
allows you to not only get an overall view of the health [code-wise]  
of your application, but also gives you the ability to dig deep to  
find those unmaintainable and complex hotspots," Somasegar said.

For Visual Studio 2008, Code Metrics will ship with five metrics:  
Cyclomatic Complexity, Depth of Inheritance, Class Coupling, Lines of  
Code and Maintainability Index, he said. "
