Identify LOC for each file in iOS project - ObjectiveC based application development

Question

Is there tool that will give me a detailed report on number lines each file/class in project has?

I tried CLOC. All that I get is that the project level and that is nice to start with. I want a detailed drill down on each class. Do we have any open source tools that will do this for me?

I recommend using sloccount, you will get the LOC by directories and files as expected. You won't be able to have the LOC by class however.

If this limitation is ok, just use the --details flag in the command line you are using, for example if you run the sloccount command in the root directory of your Xcode project::

    sloccount --duplicates --wide --details YOUR-TARGET-NAME

The output is a bit hard to read but you will get all the information you need.

If you want to have a nice report and be able to drill down in the directories/files via a HTML report, I suggest using Jenkins. Just install the 'Jenkins plugin for sloccount' via Jenkins UI.

You can see how to setup it in this blog article (disclaimer: I am the author). You will also be able to see examples of such reports.

i was looking for a good open source metrics counter for Objective C for a long time... i didn't find any yet...

you can use ProjectCodeMeter http://projectcodemeter.com, but it's not free... hovever the trial version works for 3 months and when it ran out i installed it on my laptop and got another 3 months :)
