50 Million lines of code in VS2012?!

Sounds like the developer minions are being measured by a line counter. Ugh... Tell a marginal coder he (or she) is being measured by "bugs per line of code" and see what you get. 50,000,000 lines of code (and a lot of cleanup to do) :wtf:

I see no problem with that. VS2012 contains the IDE, Team Foundation + C++ + C# + VB + .... That's a lot of code.

I'd rather be phishing!

I'm not exactly sure but I think I might have heard that VS2010 had something around 2-4 TB of source. Probably also including a lot more than just code lines. But I'd guess that number is not that far off... :)

I'm sure if you have a shufty around the net you will eventually find a copy of the source, you can then do a check of the source size, how many lines, number of comments etc. :doh:

This was in todays Code Project Daily news, the title in fact ;)

Unfortunately that's what a lot of managers say (about using line counters to measure a developers worth)

Did you mean to tell the OP? I know it was I saw it..... Anyhoo, do you really believe some of those numbers? Some of them have a distinct fragrance about them... :rolleyes:

Think of the unit testing/QA involved, that would be a full time job for a lot of people!

Given the amount of rants that I've seen probably it was a job fort one or two at much... :rolleyes: PS: it was a joke, let's have it clear.
