updated-March 16-Line counter program... if you want

[MrPolite]

Simple app, works with vb and c#. Just choose your VS.NET solution file and it does the rest.




Also don't forget to donate (see the about menu)

Fixed Issues:
-Loads ASP.NET projects now (hope everything goes fine with this)
-Detects the linked files in a project




Download Here

Download Source Code (kinda useless)

The C# section has some errors when identifying comments.
You can have a comment section like this (IDE does this for you):
/*
*
*
*
*/

Also, you can have (which is basically the same as above):
/*

ANY THING CAN GO HERE.

*/

I know you are doing this for yourself, but just thought I would state that in case someone else is using it as a accurate solution.

actually I was wacthing a movie and I was thinking of the same thing I think it only doesn account for the comment lines that start with "*". I'll fix it, thanks

umm also, hellswraith, give me some of your pro advice, hows the app?

[MrPolite]

changed it to this, it should work fine now, I guess:

While sr.Peek <> -1
                aLine = sr.ReadLine().Trim()
                If aLine.Length = 0 Then
                    codeInfo.EmptiesCount += 1
                ElseIf aLine.StartsWith("/*") Then
                    While sr.Peek <> -1
                        codeInfo.CommentCount += 1
                        If aLine.IndexOf("*/") <> -1 Then
                            Exit While
                        End If
 
                        aLine = sr.ReadLine
                    End While
 
                ElseIf aLine.StartsWith("//") Then
                    codeInfo.CommentCount += 1
                Else
                    codeInfo.CodeCount += 1
                End If
            End While

I'd appreciate some more testers

Looks like it will work.

I didn't get to spend a lot of time looking through, I just wanted to see what you were doing about comments in the code vs. whitespace vs actual code. It looked good from what I seen. I am sure if lots of time were spent on it, it could be refactored a tad, but it works, and I am all about if it works, it is good.

There was another thought about counting C# (and VB for that matter). What about this:

myVariable = myVariable + "blahblah" +
                 "Somemore string text, etc"; 

Is that counted as two lines of code? Should be one (at least from my perspective. Same could be said for VB like so:

myVariable = myVariable & "blahblah" & _
               "Somemore string text, etc"

Don't take this as criticism, I am perfectly happy with what you provided us. I was just thinking about what has to be done to get a completely accurate count. I am not knocking your app, it works quite well, just a couple cases that it could produce different results. Even the one above is a controversal one. I mean, someone could call it two lines, I call it one. All in how you look at it I guess....lol.

Thanks for the app, I like it.

[MrPolite]

hehe yeah thought of that too maybe I'll add an option. Right now it doesn't consider multi-line stuff as one line. I was thinking of counting the semi colons or something for C#, but I thought it's not that important

it's easy to figure that out for VB but I guess not as simple with C#. In vb I just have to look for a "_" character. But dunno about C#. When can you have a line of code that doesnt end with a semicolon? I can only think of brackets"{", attributes, and I guess class/namespace/etc definitions....

You could add it as plugin for VS.NET. You could press a menu or whatever that would run your program with the project name as argument.

hmm I suppose... but
umm
eeh
UUH
how do you make a plugin for vs?

[Pirate]

As more ideas , you could add this as add-ins and integrates it with VS.NET IDE .

MrPolite, whats the deal with the sexy looking titlebar on that screenshot?

Is that effect your own work or is it something I've missed out on completely:

New Project...Other Projects...VS.net Add-in Project.

I think you need the Pro version though.

it's a windows theme from XPStyles. BlueColor.

EDIT:

actually... something like that is from mandrake linux. trillian uses the same style as mrpolite's theme. not sure whether they're derived from the mandrake linux theme. that one's better, imo.

[MrPolite]

yeah thats the watercolor theme that came with StyleXP... I kinda dont like the ugly/busy looking themes, but I really do get tired of one theme after a while, so I change it...



umm I tried making an add-in, it didnt work, dunno why I guess I dont know how exactly.... once the button used to appear in the tools menu, then it disappeared, then other stuff anyone has a good and through tutorial for addins?

[MrPolite]

bump, another update

[PT Exorcist]

it doesn't load up my vs 2005 solutions

FIX IT!

[wossname]

[wayne-campbell]Yeah, get the .net (2005). Are you mental?[/wayne-campbell]
