Searchable C/C++ DB surpasses 275 million lines
Sembiance writes "I've been working on a C/C++ source code search database for the past year. It has recently surpassed 275 million lines of searchable open source C/C++ code. The search engine is C/C++ syntax aware so you can search for specific elements such as functions, macros, classes, comments, etc. The site is built upon many open source products including: MySQL and Lucene for the database, CodeWorker to parse the code, PHP and Apache for the website and GeSHi for syntax highlighting. I'm currently looking for suggestions on what sort of 'interesting statistics' I could create from 275+ million lines of open source C/C++ code."
Stay tuned for our reaching 280 million lines, followed by 285, 290, 295, and 300. Expect a new Slashdot post soon, as we need to advertise!
Microsoft Sucks, F/OSS Rocks. I get mod points now right?
That was pretty much my reaction too. Talk about a pointless project.
The most rabid believers in American Exceptionalism are the exact same people whose policies are destroying it.
