Incorrectly determined language

Hi,

Recently, I've added libLAS project (http://www.ohloh.net/projects/10742) to the Ohloh.net. Everything works great except surprising analysis of programming language in which the libLAS is written. The libLAS is C++ library but the analysis (http://www.ohloh.net/projects/10742/analyses/latest) says it's written in:

shell script - 86 %
C/C++ - 14 %

I'd be thankful if someone could explain me this result. Perhaps long autoconf scripts like ./configure, etc. are measured and ranked higher than the core sources. Is this correct?

Regards,

Hi Mateusz,

You've guessed the problem exactly. This project has 1130 lines of C++. Meanwhile, the configure script has 15,975 lines, and the ltmain.sh script has 5322 lines.

Hi Robin,

Thank you for the confirmation. Now, everything is clear to me.
