Yasca v1.0 Released - New Static Analysis Tool

[michael scovetta]

Hello,

Yasca is a new static analysis tool designed to scan Java, C/C++,
JavaScript, .NET, and other source code for security and code-quality
issues. Yasca is easily extensible via a plugin-based architecture, so
scanning PHP, Ruby, or other languages is as simple as coming up with
rules or integrating external tools.

Yasca includes plugins for the following open-source projects:
* FindBugs (http://findbugs.sourceforge.net/)
* PMD (http://pmd.sourceforge.net/)
* Jlint / antiC (http://artho.com/jlint/)

Yasca also features a simple regular-expression plugin that allows new
rules to be written in less than a minute. It includes many custom
rules created specifically for Yasca, and additional rule-packs will
be released soon.

Yasca is hosted on SourceForge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/yasca)
with additional information at http://yasca.org.

Thank you,

Mike Scovetta

I'm sorry but Yasca sounds like another loss of time. The only advantage
i see is that i get one big HTML output instead of 3...
