Nested ``++if++``, ``++switch++``, ``++for++``, ``++foreach++``, ``++while++``, ``++do++``, and ``++try++`` statements are key ingredients for making what's known as "Spaghetti code".

|
Such code is hard to read, refactor and therefore maintain.

With the default threshold of 3:

|

if (condition1) // Compliant - depth = 1
|
|
{
|
|
/* ... */
|
|
if (condition2) // Compliant - depth = 2
|
|
{
|
|
/* ... */
|
|
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++) // Compliant - depth = 3, not exceeding the limit
|
|
{
|
|
/* ... */
|
|
if (condition4) // Noncompliant - depth = 4
|
|
{
|
|
if (condition5) // Depth = 5, exceeding the limit, but issues are only reported on depth = 4
|
|
{

/* ... */

return;
