A friend watched me writing code for a project asked: So, how many lines of code is that? How many did you write and how many were generated by a tool? I didnt know..... How can I find out?

The lines generated by a tool are generally boilerplate, VS does not write code in any meaningful way, it just generates standard lines, like event handlers, when you tell it to. so, you wrote it all.

I very rarely write code. Most of it is "generated" by Intellisense. Steps:
- Type "using System.T"
- Select "System.Threading".
- Type a semicolon.
Generated Code:
using System.Threading;
;P
Visual Studio is an excellent GUIIDE.

I remember caring about that waaaay back in the day. These days it's pretty irrelevant with all the template generated lines etc. The app I'm working on today has over 20 projects in the solution. Lines of code must be zillions by now. ;)

What's a line of code? I can break a statement onto many lines, and I can put many statements on one line. A C/C++/C# source file may contain no linefeeds at all (only pre-processor directives require them). Counting statements might make some sense, but even that is fairly pointless. Just say "42".

Why should you even care, you will be responsible for it no matter where it comes from. What if you wrote the code generator, does that get special status. Talk about stupid questions! And no I have no idea and could care even less.

Use a regular expression file search tool to count the number of semicolons in your project, and exclude the files that are designer created. First, copy all the files to a temp directory. Then search that directory for all the designer files; delete those files. Searching for the number of semicolons should then give you a pretty accurate estimate of number of lines. If you want actual lines rather than lines of code, you could use the same regular expression approach to count the number of line endings. Actually, that approach wouldn't work with me. Most of my code is XAML (hand typed, not designer generated), so there are no semicolons to count. An alternative approach would be to decide how many characters an average line takes up (say, 80), then divide the file size by that number to get the approximate number of lines. Might have to use half that number if the text uses one of those "double wide" character encodings.

fair enough - you do have to be careful about what you mate gets to touch *grin* Bryce

In which case he owes you a beer while you describe what you do, I'm betting you can drag it out for a couple of beer but you are going to have to watch out for that glazed look that come into their eyes.

There are plenty of free VS add ins that generate that number for you.

You could always write a utility to count semi-colons in all files in a directory to give you a rough estimate.
int x ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
x = 42 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
