How to count the c++ file code lines?

[roboo]

How can I count the comment lines,function numbers and function lines in C/C++ file. I am I,Who is who,I am who,Who am I

Use GetLine to read a line at a time, then parse each string for comments or function declarations, etc. I'd do it in C#, because then you can use Regular Expressions, which would have to help.

Really??I want to use the regular Expression too.But I am not familar with it.Can you show me the example. By the way,I can use the regular expression in VC6 ,so I do't have to use C# I am I,Who is who,I am who,Who am I

At it's simplest, a regular expression is like when you search for a file and type *.txt to get a text file - the * stands for any number of characters. RegEx can be a lot more complex, the MSDN is full of examples. C++ does not support RegEx natively, the .NET framework does. If you have VC6 it may not be worth the effort of finding something you can plug in to do it for you, although it's possible that Boost has something ( www.boost.org ). The C# compiler is free from Microsoft and there are some open source, free IDE's, so it's not entirely out of the question to give C# a go.

Thank you very much again. Can you tell me where can I find the example code either C++ or C#. I am I,Who is who,I am who,Who am I

MSDN is full of RegEx code, I have some articles on CP about iostreams ( which is how you read and write files ), apart from that I guess your options include string mashing, if you're using MFC then CString is the best string class to do that sort of stuff, unless you want to write funky STL functors for std::string.

I think you had misunderstood me.I know how to use regular expression. I just want to know how to judge the "/**/" "//" "{}" string by regular expression.I cannot write the correct and workable expression. I am I,Who is who,I am who,Who am I

[Christian Graus]

Ah... I see. To be honest, I need to look up MSDN myself to build them, I'm not that experienced. The MSDN docs are very good though, I just don't know the stuff well enough yet to do it without them.

Go to the macros and add-ins section for some add-ins that do this (maybe not all you need - but a start) cheers, Chris Maunder
