Dear Nalin,

SemmleCode does not have full-text search features. Instead, it allows you to phrase more precise semantic-oriented queries.  In your example, I believe you want to count the number of 'while' *statements* in a class.
We are currently working on adding information about statements in the database, and we will let you know as soon as it is ready. Note that with SemmleCode, since you will be looking for statements only,
occurrences of the 'while' word inside string literals will be automatically ignored.

Do you have any other precise example of what you wish to count? It would be helpful if you could tell us what exactly you would like to compute.

Thank you for your interest and feedback.

Hi again Nalin,

As I said in my previous post, we are working on the population of statements as well as control flow information into the database. Once that is done, querying the cyclomatic complexity will be possible and we will add a common definition for it in the pre-packaged library of metrics queries. So stay tuned.
