RE: Line Counter (without Comments)
Over the last couple of days in my free time, I've been working on a modification to the code you guys posted, so it won't count blank lines and lines that were commented out. Here are the results. It looks for these comment types: !--- --- !-- -- /* */ It won't count single comment lines, nor sections of commented code. Also, if you happen to have your end comment tag at the beginning of another line of valid code, that line /will/ be counted. Do you guys see any problems with this code (aside from the mutilation of line wrapped email)? cfdirectory directory=C:\apache2\htdocs\test\testFolder action=list name=mySite filter=* sort=directory recurse=yes cfset totalLines = 0 !---loop over all the files and filter on list of extensions--- cfloop query=mySite cfif type eq file cfif listLen(name, '.')

Re: Line Counter (without Comments)
I had a nightmare assignment once to fix two lines of code in a file that had 7800 lines. There were nested tables, inside nested loops, multiple CFiFs, lots of cfif clientID=x and version=y And not one comment anywhere. The project manager had the view that comments only make the file size bigger and therefore slower to load. It took me most of the day to find the lines I had to fix. Just for spite, I put a comment in the code when i finished the task.

Re: Line Counter (without Comments)
The ideal thing would have been to take this big file and break it into smaller bits - cfcs or includes or custom tags, however that wasnt an option apparently. Since the actual work was only a 5 minute job but it took most of the day to do, his decision not to have comments anywhere was an expensive one. I'm assuming that plenty of people before me had done similar work on this file too, so add up all that extra cost as my predecessors and those following me waded through the mud on this file and the absence of comments has probably cost many many times more than the original cost of writing the file did.

Yeah, I like the small bits part, and personally, I roll without comments 'cause my code is self-explanatory. Just kidding but I think the idea is sound. Especially with the hint field of functions, which if you use right, you can generate docs off of, I've heard. :-) That was one of the parts of the PP book I liked, the bit about not wasting time commenting stuff that shouldn't need it, so to speak. But generally I try to write my code so I'll know what's going on by looking at the code, so I avoid things like naming a b c vars, 'cept for very obvious cases. As for the line count, that's really an interesting number. I'd count hand coded HTML as real code, but wouldn't count a DW template's code everywhere it occurred, nor generated files. So a simple regex is going to be tough to write. It's possible, I'm sure, but it would probably be as long as my tragic EOL mishap line of code, and woe is the non-regex-uber-guru working on that, neh? Simple, no. Quite a problem. Plus, for a bonus to cf-talk, I'll recount a story my dad told me about a programmer he hired. Keeping in mind that he himself programmed. My dad would walk around the company, you know, seeing what people were up to, what they're working on, etc.. One person would be watching the line, another working levers, others sweating over a forge or moving huge pallets of stuff hither and yon... And then there was the programmer, staring off into space. It pissed him off that he never knew if he was working or not. :-) LOL I can never do my dad's stories justice, he's got a real flare for 'em, that I find difficult to capture. Practice, I guess. :-) Might take a certain type to find that funny, but I think we've got that type here. Anyways the point is it's hard to measure anything besides how many lines of code you have. 5 is 5. Wow, didn't know that. Doesn't really mean squat, besides what it means. Sheesh. I make a ton of sense when I try, don't I?
