The Polyspace Desktop interface (Bug Finder & Code Prover) received a subtle but important change in R2021a: Polyspace R2021a is a major release of MathWorks'
metrics—such as cyclomatic complexity and number of paths—early in the development cycle to reduce future refactoring needs. Cross-Release Integration - MATLAB & Simulink 10
: A new category of customizable checkers in Polyspace Bug Finder allows you to monitor quantifiable code complexity metrics, such as cyclomatic complexity and path counts, helping detect overly complex modules early in development.
