Determining Cyclomatic Complexity
There are various commercial and open source software metrics tools on the market that can examine source code and report on the gamut of software metrics. One such tool, which happens to be open source, is PMD.
Running PMD against a code base is quite easy (see this article by Tom Copeland). Upon examining the code, PMD will produce a report in various forms, such as XML and HTML, that describes the various customizable infractions found.
