-49 LOC for Arcavias Core

The source code parser seems to be unable to parse the files of the Arcavias Core project since some time and it's reporting a negative number of lines of code.

Norbert,

I have started a re-evaluation of the code we presently have from the project (a slightly less demanding process than a re-fetch) to see if the errors seen are cumulative or persistent. The trouble seems to be with our counting of XML Schema files (total lines -945). I'll report back once the process finishes.

The totals presented are done with unsigned integer math (I'll bet) and are notorious for making BIG errors when presented with a signed integer to deal with. (Example: representing -490,186 lines of code...) I make that more like 18,916 lines discounting the mis-counted XML Schema code.

Thanks!

Norbert,

It appears the error was cumulative. Often we fix an error in a source code recognition routine but the errors introduced early on aren't cleared until the project is re-fetched. That's OK for a project the size of yours but it can be quite a tall order when a re-fetch takes months instead of minutes. We do have those cases where the repository is huge or complex and where the SCM is one of our poorer performers.

Re-fetch finished OK (2986 total commits). Analysis is now at July 16, 2014 on code collected on July 16, 2014 and last commit is at July 06, 2014.

Please remind me here if the project goes astray again.

Thanks!
