Used Methods
++++++++++++

  Those methods are used in the code: this means they have a definition and at least one call. They may have more than one call too. This analysis is mostly useful for detecting unused methods.

.. code-block:: php
   
   <?php
   
   class foo {
       public function used() {
           $this->used();
       }
   
       // No usage of 'unused', as method call, in or out of the definition class.
       public function unused() {
           $this->used();
       }
   }
   
   class bar extends foo {
       public function some() {
           $this->used();
       }
   }
   
   $a = new foo();
   $a->used();
   
   ?>
