Talk:Software package metrics

Wrong name?

All mentioned metrics are founded by Robert C. Martin, and commonly know as "Martin's metric" ( http://www.objectmentor.com/resources/articles/stability.pdf by author and http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/Xplore/login.jsp?url=/iel5/8710/27581/01231215.pdf?arnumber=1231215 by Champaign et al.). So should someone rename this article? Sthyry (talk) 22:23, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

OOD?

It is a common misunderstanding to believe that design patterns and, in this case, metrics, only apply to object oriented programming. For instance, a system that deployed a server dynamically and as such required connectivity to the Debian package repositories, connectivity to the cloud provider (such as GCP), connectivity to Maven library repositories, calls to bash command-line tools, etc., would also be unstable for all the same reasons as an OOD system would be. The repositories going down, GCP calls timing out, network connectivity staying constant, possible changes to the command-line arguments to the bash tool, etc., would all result in the system potentially failing, and so this system should not be depended upon by other systems. Would it be acceptable to remove the reference to OOD in the article? Joncard1 (talk) 15:24, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
