Testwell CMT++ Code Complexity Measures Tool for C/C++ version (4.2) is available September 2007
CMT++ 4.2 comes with new features, i.e.:

The format of the long report is changed to XML. The report form has been extended to contain "all" information that CMT++ in general analyses from the source files (system-level summary, alarms, etc.). This new XML form is now meant to be the primary means in CMT++ integrations to tool chains.
From a class/struct declaration inline methods are now reported. The declaration itself is no more reported as its own entity. It is considered to be like any other header code (like a function prototype), which is counted to file-level measures.
Better handling of conditional compilations when unbalanced {}s. No more "unexpected end of file" messages in normal use cases.
