Hi folks, just a bit of quick research I need to do:

- How many lines of code is your largest project thus far?

- How many functions have you used in the above project?

- How long does the above project take to compile?

- Do you declare multiple vars like this:

global one,two,three

or like this:

global one
global two
global three

- How many include files are there in a normal project.

- Are you a function() or a gosub: person? (Or both)

I'd be grateful if a few of you could answer some/all of the above questions .

My answers are:

4000, 30, ?, seperate lines, 5, function()

- How many lines of code is your largest project thus far?
1,500 lines, unfinished - likely to be ~ 3,000 lines

- How many functions have you used in the above project?
40 to 50

- How long does the above project take to compile?
30 seconds

- Do you declare multiple vars like this:
global one
global two
global three

for clarity


- How many include files are there in a normal project.
~ 8 to 10

- Are you a function() or a gosub: person? (Or both)
Always functions, never Gosubs. I find Gosubs too restrictive

- How many lines of code is your largest project thus far?
3000 to 4000 lines (when all includes are included) and is also unfinished - likely to be anywhere up to 15000 lines

- How many functions have you used in the above project?
somewhere around 150 - likely to increase to about 500ish - maybe more

- How long does the above project take to compile?
Don't know - I've never compiled everything together - I prefer to build the functionality first (with test harnesses) then glue it all together at the end

- Do you declare multiple vars like this:
global one
global two
global three

Yep, me too

- How many include files are there in a normal project.
Again, I don't know yet ... but may go up to 50+

- Are you a function() or a gosub: person? (Or both)
Definitely functions for me

not many (<10), about 40 subs though

Quote: "- How long does the above project take to compile?"


about 10 secs

2nd way

Quote: "- How many include files are there in a normal project."


depends, for a game about 10

gosub for just splitting up code, funcation for specific, erm, functions

1) 180,000 (179,424) across 56 includes - Main Source 3,812
2) 364 Functions
... 42 Subroutines
... 93 Structured Types
3) 39minutes 21seconds (2minutes to load DLLs, 5minutes into main menu)
4) Depended on what made it easier to read, usually when grouped declarations are made the i'll use the ',' prefix else it is seperate
5) Again depends on the project, i have a small source library which contains alot of the DirectX Library Prototypes for internal DBP use and alot of Header files for DBP's features (suchas Shaders and FVF) to make my life alot easier.
6) Both... each are very useful in thier own right
