        The rules: The longest function you can find , must be in old code code you're working on _today_ I've got here a Function called "Optimize" in the code i'm working on - its 1709 lines long, can anyone beat that ?

        I probably do, but finding it may be difficult. I will have to find a function analyzer to see.... I've only got a decade's worth of code in one project. A header function documentation extraction (similar to doxygen) overran a 4 inch binder last year. _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau.

            I've got here a Function called "Optimize" in the code i'm working on - its 1709 lines long, can anyone beat that ? uhhh... If I remove the header comment from DrawCallback() it is 1710 lines, it is the most important function I am currently using too. (and has 2 gotos) X| It calls another function (yes it actually calls functions too) that is 786 lines long. (and it has 3 gotos) X| Networking thread is 1386 lines AppProcessing has to have been rewritten (I just don't remember doing it) as it is a measly 732 lines long. (and neither have gotos) that's from a quick 3 minute perusal. _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau. Talk about things of tomorrow and the mice in the ceiling laugh.

              May I check back tomorrow @ work? I have a few (!) files containing basically gargantous switch statements of copypasted code. I know that for one, the whole file is >3.5K lines. Duno the actual funciton though.

                      1170 lines. I think it nests down to 4 ifs and a switch, so there are a lot of cases to handle. And it's called recurseNodeNames(), so it gets called a LOT. :-D The kindest thing you can do for a stupid person, and for the gene pool, is to let him expire of his own dumb choices.
