First of all I’d like to say that I developed this application, on my spare time at home, not because particularly useful but to have an opportunity to play a bit further with Flex and AIR. If I had gone for the useful route I would have probably developed a plug-in for an IDE, like Eclipse, as
I did already in the past. But this doesn’t mean that I won’t use it :)
When an application starts to grow you start wondering, how many classes did we created? How many lines of code did we write? Not because the more the best but just because we are geeks!
So Code Stats is an AIR application that with a drag’n’drop interface calculates the amount of files with a specific extension and the amount of code contained. In the file
settings.xml, that you can find in the same folder where the application is installed, it is possible to customize the extensions to include in the calculation and for each how the comments are defined (of course counting comments would be cheating! :) ).
The entire source code is available
here and requires
Flex 3.
The application, instead, can be installed from
here.
