count lines in a PHP project



I'm just curious. Do you know any tool which can count all the code lines from a PHP project?





Many thx!

  1. On a POSIX operating system (e.g. Linux or OS X) you can write the following into your Bash shell:

    wc -l `find . -iname "*.php"`


    This will count the lines in all php-files in the current directory and also subdirectories. (Note that those single 'quotes' are backticks, not actual single quotes)

  2. SLOCCount is an awesome tool that produces a line-count report for a large number of languages. It also goes further by producing other, related statistics such as expected developer cost.

    Here's an example:

    $ sloccount .
    Creating filelist for experimental
    Creating filelist for prototype
    Categorizing files.
    Finding a working MD5 command....
    Found a working MD5 command.
    Computing results.


    SLOC Directory SLOC-by-Language (Sorted)
    10965 experimental cpp=5116,ansic=4976,python=873
    832 prototype cpp=518,tcl=314


    Totals grouped by language (dominant language first):
    cpp: 5634 (47.76%)
    ansic: 4976 (42.18%)
    python: 873 (7.40%)
    tcl: 314 (2.66%)




    Total Physical Source Lines of Code (SLOC) = 11,797
    Development Effort Estimate, Person-Years (Person-Months) = 2.67 (32.03)
    (Basic COCOMO model, Person-Months = 2.4 * (KSLOC**1.05))
    Schedule Estimate, Years (Months) = 0.78 (9.33)
    (Basic COCOMO model, Months = 2.5 * (person-months**0.38))
    Estimated Average Number of Developers (Effort/Schedule) = 3.43
    Total Estimated Cost to Develop = $ 360,580
    (average salary = $56,286/year, overhead = 2.40).

  3. Unfortunately, SLOCCount is a bit long in the tooth and a pain in the neck for PHP projects, particularly ones that have a nested vendor directory you don't want counted. Also, it emits a warning for every PHP file that doesn't have a closing tag (which should be all of them if you aren't mixing HTML and PHP).

    CLOC is a more modern alternative that does everything SLOCCount does, but also supports an --exclude-dir option and it doesn't suffer from the aforementioned close tag problem. It also emits a SQLite database that you can extract some pretty advanced metrics from.

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
