[Statcvs-users] Extending StatCVS to use other code-counters

[Michael I. <mik...@ra...>]

StatCVS team,

I've made some modifications to StatCVS to support more advanced SLOC
counting (i.e. blanks, comments, physical lines, etc.).  I tried to keep the
existing API intact as much as possible while building an extensible
framework to support different code-counting tools.  SCLC is implemented and
I plan on also implementing USC's CodeCount.  There are also many other
things I'd like to finish (add new unit tests, more reports, remove some of
my debugging code, general cleanup); however, I thought I'd share what I
have all ready since it has the basic functionality in place.

The new features are:

* The simple built-in SLOC counter now differentiates blank from non-blank
lines.
* When using the SCLC counter you get comment line counts, physical lines
counts, other line counts on the index page.

The current patch is attached if you would like to incorporate the changes
(note that in order to have SCLC match the old StatCVS count exactly you
also need to patch SCLC for this issue
http://code.google.com/p/sclc/issues/detail?id=4).  Please feel free to
suggest changes or improvements.

Thanks,
Michael
