Checking lines of code

Is there a way in Code::Blocks to check how many lines of code are contained in the entire project or workspace that you are working in?

You could always use the command "wc". I'm not sure if Code::Blocks has anything or not.

It's pretty easy to write your own line counter, but of course, it wouldn't be integrated with Code::Blocks.

Oh please.....why would I want to write my own line counter in a matter of minutes which would take up maybe 50 lines of code at most when I could be lazy and have another person do it for me? :rolleyes:

Very well, try mine. ;) It's called makewc.sh in here: http://dwks.theprogrammingsite.com/m...-svn-89.tar.gz

You asked for it. :)

[edit] That's assuming you have bash, which you might not. [/edit]

gnuwin32 has a "wc" program that lists lines, words and characters per file. Assuming you don't have lots of "spare" .C/.CPP files (etc) laying about in the same directory, and not too many directories in your project, something like:

Code:

---

c:\myprojects\thisproj\>wc --lines src\*.cpp inc\*.h

---

will give you a list of filenames and the respective number of lines, along with a total for all files.

My shell script does basically that, except it works for multiple directories and filenames with spaces in them. (Well, the latest version does. That one doesn't.) It also discards .c files when there are corresponding .y files, because that's something I needed.

Code:

---

find -iname "*.{cpp,hpp}" | xargs wc --lines

---

would also work, as long as you don't overflow the command line.
