Tools to automate calculation of cyclomatic complexity in java?

Question

Are there any tools available for Java that can automagically determine the cyclomatic complexity of given Java code? I have sought out tools online, and have yet to find one.

Answer 1

I use Sonar (my preferred method). There are plugins to "automagically" generate the report at build time (i.e. ANT/Maven, etc...).

One other tool I've used in the past is corbetura. You have to have good unit tests though and finding the quantitative analysis for CC is a little tricky.
