Overall Design Summary
R2026bMetric ID
modeldesign.OverallMaintainability[slcomp.OverallDesignSummary]
Description
This metric returns the overall cyclomatic complexity and Halstead difficulty for each unit in your project. These values represent the combined maintainability measurements across all design layers in the unit. Use this metric to compare the overall maintainability of units in your project.
Supported Artifacts
This metric collects metric results for Units in the project. To control what the dashboard classifies as a unit, see Categorize Models in Hierarchy as Components or Units.
Collection
To collect data for this metric, execute the metric engine with the metric ID.
metric_engine = metric.Engine;
results = execute(metric_engine,"modeldesign.OverallMaintainability[slcomp.OverallDesignSummary]")View the metric result values for a specific unit.
results(1).Value results(1).ScopeAlias
You can also collect all overall maintainability metrics at once by using the group ID.
results = execute(metric_engine,"modeldesign.OverallMaintainability[]")MetricID property of each result to identify which metric the result
belongs to.Results
The metric returns an array of metric.ResultValue property of the metric result object to view the metric
result values. Use the ScopeId and ScopeAlias
properties to identify which unit the result belongs to.
The ScopeAlias property returns the name of the unit.
The Value property returns a structure with these fields:
Complexity— Overall cyclomatic complexity of the unitHalsteadDifficulty— Overall Halstead difficulty of the unit
