Hi Jonathan, yes, you did not miss anything, there is no generated code in commons-collections. All classes in source folder src/main/java would belong to your "productive code" category, while classes in folder "src/test/java" would belong to "test code".
If you need an example of generated code, take a look at the mahout-collections project which does generated classes based on templates: http://www.apache.org/dist/mahout/mahout-collections-1.0/ Thomas On Thu, Oct 17, 2013 at 1:03 PM, Jonathan Bernwieser < bernwieserjonat...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi there, > I am currently doing my Bachelor thesis at TU Munich, at the Software > Engineering chair of Prof. Broy. > > > The goal of this thesis is to create a tool to automatically categorize > source code in open source software.
