What about adding to vax simple code metrics for c++ code? Like number of lines, comment lines, non-comment lines, module count, class count , method count, etc...

This idea has come up before, but currently we don't have any plans to try and do this. One simple reason is that code metric's start to get quite complex quite quickly. If people really care about them, then they tend to want quite a lot of metric's, and quite a lot of control over them.

This seems a bit outside of the current scope of VA, and there are specialised code metric's tools available for those who want them.

I've used Source Monitor (http://www.campwoodsw.com/sourcemonitor.html) - free, comprehensive, works well.

Some IDE integration - namely, navigating from methods /classes mentioned to the actual source would be nice, but isn't a killer feature. Other than that, it's fine as a standalone tool.
