6.2.7. CycleDetection

Find cycles in the callgraph or graph of #includes

Nested Rules

CycleDetection-CallgraphCycles	Find cycles in the callgraph and report them as violations
CycleDetection-IncludeCycles	Find cycles in the graph of #includes and report them as violations

6.2.7.3. Options

• Setting an option for this rule means setting the default for all nested rules.

• This rule shares the following common options: exclude_in_macros, exclude_messages_in_system_headers, excludes, includes, justification_checker, post_processing

• The following places define options that affect this rule: Analysis-GlobalOptions

generate_violation_previews

generate_violation_previews : bool = True

Whether to generate images of the cycle violations to be shown in the dashboard. This is an expensive operation and can be skipped to shorten the runtime of this rule.

 

pre_excludes

pre_excludes : set[bauhaus.analysis.config.GlobPattern] = set()

Set of globbing patterns of directories/filenames to exclude before the analysis is performed, i.e. no cycle is reported if the only connecting path goes through a node matching at least one pre_exclude entry

 

preview_edge_limit

preview_edge_limit : int = 1000

Maximum number of edges in a cycle for which a preview image should be generated.

 

preview_node_limit

preview_node_limit : int = 1000

Maximum number of nodes in a cycle for which a preview image should be generated.

 

selfloops

selfloops : bool = False

Whether only directly recursive elements should be reported as well.
