Hi,
We do not have those thresholds for Smalltalk, yet. It would be interesting to get them,
though. We only need someone to do it :)
Cheers,
Doru

No idea about the threshold. I find system complexity and class blueprint quite useful to
get a first impression of a system. I then usually visualize the dependencies.
If I really want to understand the system, then writing unit tests will do the thing.
I completely agree with you on these points...
but from my point of view I think that the overviewpyramid can be a very good
visualisation
to quickly present your system's complexity to others... especially during a
presentation...
and then you can freely dive into more detailed aspect with the system complexity and
class blueprint - to show specific points. However, without a statistically significant
smalltalk baseline (the threshold)
the pyramid doesn't convey much information especially to an external viewer...
so my point is, since we have the java and c++ cases, why not get some smalltalk (or
maybe pharo-specific)
numbers also - especially since Moose is implemented in smalltalk.

Hi all,
I'm new to using moose for analyzing a rather large smalltalk project developed
during the last 16-17 years.
I hope that using Moose framework will give positive insights on the hot-spots of the
system in order to improve its structure, and make it more maintainable.
The project name is Madeo (http://stiff.univ-brest.fr/BINIOU/MADEO) a FPGA
design-automation toolkit developed mainly by one of my PhD supervisors (Loic Lagadec).
To start the evaluation I believe that the overview pyramid is a very good starting point
in order to get a generic idea about the system.
However, I was not able to find any smalltalk threshold values in the moose image.
So my question is if there is somebody having some idea about the
smalltalk threshold values for the OverviewPyramid.
If yes, could you provide me these figures, and eventually point me to a scientific paper
presenting these results.
If not, I'm willing to try to get these figures myself... however I don't really
know which smalltalk projects I could use to get good results.
Thank you very much for your attention.
Best wishes,
