Counting Line Numbers in Eclipse

Question

I have a Java project in Eclipse with  10 packages and  10 class files per package   Is there a way to determine total lines of code for the whole project from within Eclipse   I am familiar with other tools  e g   Code Analyzer  wc  etc   but I want to know if there is a way to do this within Eclipse  or get confirmation that there is no way to do it

Here s a good metrics plugin that displays number of lines of code and much more   http   metrics sourceforge net   It says it requires Eclipse 3 1  although I imagine they mean 3 1   Here s another metrics plugin that s been tested on Ganymede   http   eclipse-metrics sourceforge net

Under linux  the simpler is    go to the root folder of your project use find to do a recursive search of   java files  use wc -l to count lines    To resume  just do   find   -name    java    xargs wc -l

You could use a batch file with the following script    echo off SET count 1 FOR  f  tokens      G IN   dir   CD  src   java   b  s   DO  type    G    gt  gt  lines txt SET count 1 FOR  f  tokens      G IN   type lines txt   DO  set  a lines  1  echo Your Project has currently totaled  lines  lines of code   del lines txt PAUSE

Are you interested in counting the executable lines rather than the total file line count  If so you could try a code coverage tool such as EclEmma  As a side effect of the code coverage stats you get stats on the number of executable lines and blocks  and methods and classes   These are rolled up from the method level upwards  so you can see line counts for the packages  source roots and projects as well

I think if you have MyEclipse  it adds a label to the Project Properties page which contains the total number of source code lines  Might not help you as MyEclipse is not free though   Unfortunately  that wasn t enough in my case so I wrote a source analyzer to gather statistics not gathered by other solutions  for example the metrics mentioned by AlbertoPL
