Is there any static analysis tools that will report how closely the SOLID principles are followed?

I don't think that automatic static analysis can determine if the principles are respected. To write such a tool you'd need to define formally what each concept mean and have a way to check it against any code. How would you formalize the notion of a responsiblity?

I have personally no idea.

My answer involves a . NET-specific product, apologies in advance, and maybe someone can suggest its non-.NET analogs.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
