Number line attached file

Is it possible to count the number of lines in an attached file in the email?

Thank you!

Messaging.EmailFileAttachment csvPJ = new Messaging.EmailFileAttachment();
blob csvBlob = Blob.valueOf(contenuCSV);
string csvNom = 'cases_fermes_'+Date.today().format()+'.csv';
csvPJ.setFileName(csvNom);
csvPJ.setBody(csvBlob);
Messaging.SingleEmailMessage email =new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage();
String[] adressMail = new list<string> {mailSouhaite};
String subject = 'Report - '+Date.today().format();
email.setSubject(subject);
email.setToAddresses( adressMail );

email.setPlainTextBody('mail....');
email.setFileAttachments(new Messaging.EmailFileAttachment[]{csvPJ});
Messaging.SendEmailResult [] envoyer = Messaging.sendEmail(new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage[] {email});
Somethig like: csvPJ.getLineNumber();

Thank you

email.setSubject(subject);
email.setToAddresses( adressMail );

//HERE THE SOLUTION:::::
String lignes = contenuCSV;
List<String> parts = lignes.split('\n');
integer lineNumber = parts.size(); 

email.setPlainTextBody('Lines = lineNumber-1');
email.setFileAttachments(new Messaging.EmailFileAttachment[]{csvPJ});
Messaging.SendEmailResult [] envoyer = Messaging.sendEmail(new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage[] {email});

Hey Veronica, 

Unfortunately, Messaging.EmailFileAttachment doesn't have any method specific to one that can count the number of lines in an attached file.

You might have to use some code to go through the complete content of the atachment and then populate the lines used.

Hi,

You might have to look for "return" characters in your attachment text to count the number of lines.
