I am doing some work in quantifying the use of inheritance as a technique
for software reuse, that is, I am measuring how things such as classes and
methods actually get used and reused. To make more sense out of my
measurements, I need some *real data*, that is, I need to get hold of large
applications written in Smalltalk.
The large applications I have already gotten hold of are:
(a) the Smalltalk system itself,
(b) Alan Borning's ThingLab, and
(c) Rob Duisberg's Animus.
Does anybody know of any other public domain Smalltalk application that I
could use? Or does anyone have any major applications that they could
release for me to measure reuse in? I would appreciate getting pointers to
such software. Yes, I'll collect and post a summary of the relevant public
domain software.
If anyone has already done such measurements or is in the process of doing
them, I would also like to hear from them.
When I get done with my measurements and finish my paper, I'll mail copies
of it to those of you who may be interested in it.
Thanks.
