How to capture code metrics in Xcode?

Question

I want to write my code more cleaner. For this purpose I'm looking for a tool to generate code metrics in Xcode. I'd like to have a statistic showing me how many tests, classes etc. were added. And the main goal is retrieving cyclomatic complexity of a program.

Does anyone know a good Xcode tools or plugin that could provide me some code metrics?

Nice! Any idea what they mean by "Main File" as used in the "Count code in main files only"? – Monolo Jun 20 '12 at 11:02
I think it means to count in implementation files (.m extension) only, while skipping header files (.h extension). – Tim Jun 20 '12 at 11:38

Thank you, but what about retrieving cyclomatic complexity of application? – Igor Jun 20 '12 at 15:06
If you use it, you should group your classes inside folders in the `Project Navigator` inside `xCode`. If you use folders inside your project `Xcode Statistician` won't be able to give you stats of all files. – Alex Cio Feb 27 '14 at 16:38

A paying (~$5) but good solution: Project Statistics for Xcode.

@Volker - The answer actually answers the question. The problem is in the question. – jww Oct 12 '14 at 04:19
@jww You're right, I should have looked more into detail to the question. – Volker E. Oct 12 '14 at 05:10
