Counting Lines of Code
-
Unfortunately devMetrics seems a bit outdated (it works with VS .NET 2003). The one here on CP is PLC, which was my favorite when I could use it.

We use this one[^] from Microsoft. It's not bad - although, I've never thought that counting LOC has any relevance; it's just certain clients seem to like this feature.

The funny thing is that I searched on MSDN Code Gallery and found none. I guess that's because Microsoft struggle at making their search engine work. Anyway, it only works for VS05...

It depends. It is a quick metric that let you know when your code is becoming too big for the team (or yourself).

Not quite true - you can run it outside of Visual Studio (it runs in standalone mode as well).

Yes, I've seen that, but it feels way too complex for my needs. I mean, when PLC worked I just had to click a button and get the results.

Do you know of any add-in for Visual Studio 2008 (excluding this one[^]) that allows to count lines of code in your solution and projects? I used to use PLC (linked above) but I can't manage to install it for VS08 because it requires registry tweaking (I succeeded on another machine, but on my current PC). Any idea?

Do something that will cause an exception. That will count the lines passed through (including iterated lines) to that point. :D

Thanks, unfortunately I strictly need one that is able to process only files in the solution (I have .cs files that contain data and not code).

How something as basic as counting lines would require registry tweaking is beyond me. No help other than suggesting
grep ";" *.[ch] | wc. :-O -

It’s not so complicated and what I like is that it excludes the comments and blanks from the result, so you get the real picture. What’s bugging me with this tool is that you need to select manually every source file from the check list box and if the files are thousands…

The VS add-in I used to use (linked in my original post) was built for VS05 and never updated for VS08. You could get it working in VS08 with some registry tweaking, but for some reason I'm no more able to make it work on my new PC.

You'll have to forgive my ranting. I'm one of them luddites that still uses a simple text editor and the command line for development.

Really. I kinda like it. Can't think of a single crash or problem my development environment has given me in the last 30 years. This year I'm upgrading to gcc from my Watcom compiler. Should be exciting.

Preach it, man! VS is for designing Forms; I don't do much of that.

First, define a "line of code" . Counting statements might make sense, but then you still need to define a statement . You should be able to remove all the linfeeds from a C-family program without affecting it ( unfortunately, precompiler directives break that :mad: ) .

Visual SlickEdit Gadgets has a SLOC Report as one of the gadgets. I have it working in VS2008. See: http://www.slickedit.com/content/view/441/#SLOCReport[^]
Thanks for the links, seems promising!
