Now, five days after I started refactoring, I have finally gotten my code to compile once again. At one point I had 4000< errors for 3500> lines of code(not including comments, whitespace etc.), it was some recursive template stuff. I'm a little disappointed since before refactoring I had over 3500 LOC(lines of code), now I only have 2865 LOC[crying] which doesn't sound as good, I had hoped I would cross the 5000 LOC barrier sometime next week, but that isn't going to happen because I had to refactor even though I haven't gained any new functionality.
I had actually planned to refactor my logging system too, but I think I will work on a memory manager first since I don't want to drop below 2500 LOC.
Everything was much easier when I was just learning C++ and just added code to my main function without ever removing a single line. Also copy-pasting instead of creating general-purpose functions could helped a lot to "improve" the number of LOC.
Well everything isn't bad, I have just gotten Introduction to algorithms, 2nd edition which I hope is a good book. It will probably give me even less time to work on my engine, but it will probably pay off later when I choose the right algorithms and don't have to spend weaks optimizing the wrong sort algorithm.
