Question

I wrote a fairly large program using Eclipse. I’d like to brag a bit about my 920 lines of code, but that’s not a realistic number. Is there a way I can figure out the total number of executable lines (ignoring carriage return, comments, and perhaps brackets)?

Answer 1

You can use an Eclipse plugin like Metrics2 (see Metrics for older version) for that.

As stated on the Metrics2 page:

The project was first initiated by Frank Sauer, but since there was no
update for latest JDK and Eclipse, I’ve decided to Fork and update the
project. I would like to thank Frank for all the work he did by
starting this. The discontinued project can be found here.

There is also CodePro AnalytiX that I heard of, but actually never tested, so cannot say much about it.
