Question

Does anyone know if it is possible to get the total number of lines of code from all the classes in my project in Objective-C.
Right now I am guessing that this is not possible but I just wanted to make sure.
If it is possible does anyone know how to do it?

Answer 1

If you like the terminal and have all your files in the same folder, try:

$ wc *.m

To get at the number in your code, you could run it as a shell script build phase that generates a header file for you. E.g.

cd source_folder
wc -l *.m \
| tail -1 \
| awk '{ print "#define kNumberOfLines " $1 }' \
> lines_of_code_header.h

Then include that file and use the constant as you like.
