Word/Line count tool in Eclipse - eclipse

Is there any tool or plugin can do this? CodeBlock has this neat tool which is really nice. Wonder if it's available on Eclipse. Thanks.

http://metrics.sourceforge.net can do lines. I'm not sure about words however.

For newlines, use file search, and search for \n (with regular expressions enabled) in all of the files you want.
For words, you can just make your search term for \w+
The count is the number of matches! If you want anything fancier, make a fancier regex.

Linenumber is always displayed on the lower right corner, and left if you use the context menu an left side of your edit window and check "Show Line Numbers".
Google>: "eclipse word count" shows that many people had the same problem and developed plugins.

Add parentheses around C-expression in Eclipse

Is there a way to select a C/C++ expression in Eclipse and put a bracket around it with a single keyboard shortcut? IDEs usually have this but I couldn't find a way in Eclipse.
For Java Code, there is a more or less good workaround described in Parentheses over selected words in Eclipse, but this does not work for C-Code - after bringing up the template list for the selection, the suggested templates are empty.
As far as I know, exactly that is not possible. You might report it to Eclipse CDT as a feature request.
But as workaround a template like the following can be used:
(${line_selection})${cursor}
If you hit Shift+Alt+Z the Surround With Quick Menu shows all templates containing ${line_selection} and with a number key a templated can be selected.
The key Shift+Alt+Z can be changed, but unfortunately no key can be defined to select the template directly. Also unfortunately, this does not work for multi-line selections because everything in the template in the line before ${line_selection} will be applied to each selected line.

Replacing a string in Rubymine with a string with newlines

I want to use the Search and Replace dialogue in Rubymine, or something similar to replace something like "Scenario:" with "#Desktop\nScenario"
I'm trying to replace every instance of Scenario: in a large Cucumber test suite with
#desktop
Scenario:
Any best ways to do this?
Update:
Thanks to #ryan2johnson9 comment, I realise there's now an easier option (tested on 2017.3).
By clicking on the "New Line" (or using the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+Enter / Alt+Enter), the input becomes multilines.
Original Answer
In the search and replace box, if you tick the "Regex" option you can do:
Search: "Scenario:"
Replace by: "#desktop\nScenario:"
The only trick is to tick the "Regex" option :)
Rubymine has macros (http://www.jetbrains.com/ruby/webhelp/binding-macros-with-keyboard-shortcuts.html) but I dont think they are powerful enough for this example.
It's possible that you could solve it with some elaborate feature hidden inside Rubymine, but I think it would be a lot easier to do this with a tool like perl/sed from the Terminal. If you are using Windows I assume you could search the net and find a text search/replace tool that fits your need.
In OSX I there are a bunch of Text Substitutions app too.
I would go that route since Rubymines macro tool isnt up to the task.
Here's a cheap and sleazy alternative:
Copy a newline character from between two empty lines in the file being edited. Temporarily add two empty lines if you don't have any.
Set up search/replace and enter the string you want to replace into the search text input box.
Paste the newline you just copied into the replacement text box plus whatever other text you want. You will be able to see the height of the replacement text input box grow vertically by one line due to the newline.
Perform the search/replace.
For this, the use of the Rubymine regex is optional.

Lines of Code count for Flex in Eclipse

How to get the SLOC count for the Flex code in Eclipse?
Is there a plug-in similar to "Metrics" for finding information about the Flex porject?
This is the easiest way to count lines of code of any particular language and does not require a plugin.
Steps:
Click on the root folder of your project
Right-click and select Search (or Cntl+H)
In the box "Containing Text" type \n and make sure to select the "Regular Expression" checkbox
In the "File name patterns" input, type the file extensions of the files you want to include in your count, or click on "Choose" if you are feeling lazy.
Click "Search"
BAM! Instant line count for your entire project!
These instructions may differ slightly depending on your version of Eclipse, but you should be able to figure it out.
Good luck!
From this question:
http://metrics.sourceforge.net can do lines. I'm not sure about words
however.

Simple eclipse search problem

I use the eclipse File Search option very much to search all files in my workspace for a certain content. But how do I specify that it should only return hits from a fixed search criteria? As an example I would like to find all occurrences of the string:
com.mystuff.data
but I also get all the hits for:
com.mystuff.data.ui
How do I make a "this-string-only-search" when searching files in my workspace??
If I understand you correctly, Eclipse don't provide option to search exact word.
You can use regular expression for it.
You can use \bSearchKeyword\b to find exact word.
I suggest that you use regular expressions.
Here are the steps:
Select the checkbox "Regular expression" which is located beside the "Containing text" field.
In the "Containing text" field write: com.mystuff.data\D\W
Note that:
\D means "no digit"
\W means "no alphanumeric"
In case you would like to refine the regular expression, click Ctrl-SPACE, in order to get the regular expression assistance.
Hope this helps.
Best regards
Maybe slightly off-topic but this got me tripped and brought me here - maybe useful for somebody else:
In the Eclipse standard Find/Replace dialogue the section 'Options' (that includes the option 'Whole Word') may be hidden if the Find/Replace dialogue window was previously resized to a smaller size, without any clue to its presence. Resizing it larger brings back the options section. See: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=355206
and attached shots.
Eclipse standard Find/Replace dialogue search for Whole Word regards several characters (including period) besides a space as a word delimiter, so you indeed cannot distinguish between "com.mystuff.data" and "com.mystuff.data.ui"
E.g. search 'Stack' with option 'Whole Word' checked:
will match:
Stack
Stack overflow
Stack.overflow
Stack,overflow
Stack[overflow]
Stack(overflow)
Stack-overflow
Stack/overflow
will not match:
Stackoverflow
Stack2overflow
Stack_overflow
Simplest way is to add space in the start and end of your search term.
Try SHFT+ CTRL+R, then on right upper angle select Working Set, then name and specify your resources.
Create Work Set as above, then CTRL+H check checkbox All occurency, then select your Work Set. Or maybe you can create work set in CTRL+H.

Remove blank line in Eclipse

How can I remove lines that only contain spaces when using Eclipse Find/Replace prompt. I checked the "Regular Expression" check box, and tried the following, neither of which worked.
^[:space:]*$
and
^\s*$
Find: ^\s*\n
Replace with: (empty)
sry this might be an different answer but you can set the number of blank lines you wish to have after fields, methods and blocks in the formatting dialog of the eclipse preferences. then you can hit ctrl-shift-f to automatically format your code depending on your custom definitions.
have fun!
I was suprised that for XML files edited with Eclipse there is a good solution:
Select the checkbox value named 'Clear all blank lines' in Formatting panel
Window->Preferences->XML->XML Files-> Editor
Save and use the "Ctrl+Shift+F' shortcut
The blank lines will dissappear!
for the find/replace operation, "\n\r\s" regex will work on windows, for unix based system, "\n\s" can be used
as already suggested, you can format your code by Ctl+Shift+F
for manual work, locate a blank line and press Ctl+D (Cmd+D on Mac) <- gives u satisfaction of killing the line with your own bare hands :)
cheer!
This one worked for me for years:
Replace this: [\t ]+$
With nothing
Hope this helps!
Many thanks to lamamac.
In genereal, when you want to do search replace with regular expressions in eclipse the $ sign doesn't work as it should.
Use '\s*\n' instead of '$'
As already suggested, regular expression and replacement is the solution, but such response would have been saving some minutes to me:
click on ctrl+f
use this replacement:
