How do I get the number of lines in an entire project?

Do a project-wide search for "\n"?

Doesn't seem to work, and also there must be a better way. I think I remember Codewarrior being able to do this easily.

I don't know about Xcode, but I use this command line combo to get the line count of a folder full of files:

Code:
cd MyProjectFolder
find . "(" -name "*.m" -or -name "*.mm" -or -name "*.cpp" ")" -print | xargs wc -l

This will work recursively, and you can, of course, include whatever file extensions you want to count the lines of. You could probably also whip up a similar command using Spotlight via mdfind.

I agree this should really be a feature in Xcode though.

A bit simpler, and searching all files withing a directly, and counting all instances of newlines is:

Code:
 grep -d recurse "\n" path-to-parent-directory | wc -l

I just made this up, and haven't tested it much, but it seems to produce output that might be accurate I got 9096 lines for one of my small shareware projects.
