Question

I’m looking for a line counting tool like Project Line Counter by Oz Solomon: Project Line Counter. This add-in worked perfectly for me with VS 2005 and 2008. But, unfortunately, Oz has no time to develop it further or to adapt it to VS 2010.

Do you know some great line counting tool for C++ code that perferably (but not necessarily) meets the following requirements:

• distinguish between commented lines, blank lines, code only lines etc.
• possibility to restrict to certain files/folders (or even VS projects)
• list file names
• no cost
• integrable in VS 2010

Thanks in advance,
Flinsch.

Answer 1

This is a project based on Project Line Counter by Oz Solomon, and it improves it in some regards but the line-counting algorithms seems to be the same:

It has an update for VS 2010 made by it’s users (see the comments):
