I'm having opposite feelings at the moment. I'm on a vacation, and I haven't been programming in more than a week. Today I started planning out the framework for one of the games that I'm going to make after my current one, on paper. Someone please help me.

I sent out a game to playtest to someone who's quite sensitive to graphical matters.  He mentioned a bunch of graphical glitches/shortcomings that I was hoping nobody would ever mention.  Really don't want to have to try fixing them again, but I guess that I should Sad

It seems like at least at least 70% of the errors I get are simply "Unclassifiable statement at line x"

Not all that helpful, really.

Looks like I'm going to have to rewrite my parser from scratch using a different library. GCC doesn't seem to like anything even remotely complicated with Boost.Spirit, to the point that cc1plus.exe just crashes halfway through compilation without any error messages. Apparently this is a known problem, but there's no definitive fix, and any potential fixes I've heard of haven't helped. I've been trying to get the code to compile for several days, using all sorts of different versions of MinGW, each failing at the same point in slightly different ways. WTF
I guess I could switch to MSVC, but that means dealing with a while bunch of installation stuff that I don't feel like dealing with, as well as killing cross-compatibility (well, without installing even more stuff).

Feeling glad I followed my "don't touch boost" impulse and went with antlr :O

The documentation is a mess and I just cold stopped for a week because I couldn't figure out how to interpret the "getting started" page, but now I'm moving again & I don't have to use boost :O

I wonder at what point I can start using Clang. I'm afraid that would mean switching to XCode 4 and/or Lion.

I hear

That Clang is clean enough

It's possible to compile it yourself

This may not be true

I ended up switching to MSVC. I got through the initial set up and figuring out a new IDE, and then realized I had spent over a week trying to solve this one thing and I've now entirely forgotten where I was going next with this code. Guess I should have written that down or something.

Finding obvious errors in a framework tutorial that I'm using to learn that framework. It's as if no one ever compiled this sample code.  Facepalm

Flash CS5 and CS5.5 will not embed ANY files listed in metadata tags.

This makes both releases FUCKING USELESS.
