Re: [cdt-dev] new metric plug-in based on Codan checkers

[Ueli Kunz <kunz@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Marc-Andre

Thanks for testing and your feedback. We have further improved
metriculator, solved some bugs and again increased the performance. Is
there a way to get the source code you ran metriculator against? We
would like to see if it now works and if not be able to further
investigate the issue. Having the "problematic" source code could
simplify that task.
