This is going to be a very brief update: The spring migration continued.
Last week, I shared this little picture of the “code changes gauge” of my development branch:
Today, it looks like this:
Not quite sure what’s up with the reduced file count, but you’re going to immediately notice that the added lines of code hardly moved at all, while the deleted ones increased by over 2000. This is a good sign…code is a liability, any line of code one can delete is positive.
The reason for why those numbers look like this is that I initially commented out all code broken by the library update, meaning there where a lot of “changed” lines of code which are counted as “one added, one removed”. Now I am going through these code blocks one by one to migrate them, commenting them back in and usually shortening them quite a bit in the process (see last week’s devlog about new code generation features).
I was hoping to have this bit of the migration finished by the end of week 21, but I didn’t quite manage to do so as I had to sacrifice one day to “house stuff”.
Anyway…I’ll relaunch Bleriot real quick…and then back to code migration!
