Hashing Debug Elements — Handmade Hero — Episode Guide

1:20All You Can Eat^α

1:50"We don't know which kind of a lunch buffet our debug system will be yet..."^β

2:58Build and run and note how fast the guy zips around, before turning the debug system back on

3:34"There will always a better lunch tomorrow"^γ

3:47handmade_debug_interface.h: Recap the GUID concept

5:23On shifting the place settings when serving lunch^δ

5:53handmade_debug_interface.h: Pass in the GUID and make it work

7:15Thoughts on the macro processor^ε

8:22On thinking about memory allocation over lunch^ζ

9:40"It's more of a lunch thing"^η

10:01handmade_debug.cpp: Make CollateDebugRecords put Elements into locations based on where they came from

12:13handmade_debug.cpp: Introduce GetElementFromEvent

16:04First Rule of Programming: "You don't eat lunch if you're already full"^θ

16:21handmade_debug.cpp: Continue implementing GetElementFromEvent

19:50"That's like getting lunch delivered..."^ι

20:46handmade_debug.cpp: #if 0 CreateVariable, AddVariableToGroup, CreateVariableGroup and FreeVariableGroup

21:11handmade_debug.cpp: Introduce StoreEvent

23:54"Easy peasy lemon squeezy"^κ

24:31handmade_debug.cpp: Continue working with the StoreEvent

25:58Thoughts on lunch despotism^λ

26:24handmade_debug.cpp: Remove all of the Region stuff and #if 0 AddVariableToGroup

27:32handmade_debug.cpp: Implement StoreEvent

29:07handmade_debug.cpp: Fix compile errors

30:51Apologise for making a faux pas^μ

31:00On the programming equivalent of sitting at the wrong seat at lunch^ν

31:18handmade_debug.cpp: Vaporise PushSizeWithDeallocation

32:01"Don't let your whole life be defined by the one bad lunch you ate"^ξ

32:32handmade_debug.cpp: Make the StoredEvents be freed as necessary

36:58handmade_debug.cpp: Introduce FreeOldestFrame

39:36Compile, fix compile error and ensure everything else is doing something reasonable

40:14handmade_debug.cpp: Add if(ArenaHasRoomFor) to NewFrame

42:40handmade_debug.cpp: Make a PerFrameArena SubArena

44:44Debugger: Step into PushSize and discover that we didn't have enough debug memory

45:33Run the game and note that we're storing all of our debug data

46:25handmade_debug.cpp: Investigate why our Last frame time is wrong

48:10Debugger: Hit a FrameMarker and inspect values

50:06handmade_debug.cpp: Correctly set the MostRecentFrame

50:19Run the game and see that our Last frame time is now correct

50:32handmade_debug.cpp: Print out the memory usage of the arena

52:37Run the game and see our Per-frame arena space remaining

53:05handmade_debug.cpp: Reduce the size of that SubArena

53:41Run the game and see the new Per-frame arena space remaining

53:57Debugger: Step into StoreEvent and ensure that everything's still working properly

55:10Warn against eating more lunch than we can reasonably digest^ο

55:43"There's always lunch tomorrow"^π

57:24doritosranger Imagine that you're young again and you're eating your lunch and you can choose between a C and Java-like language in what you can work with memory in much C-like way but that language would say you how to implement some ideas (like a Python is about line offsets, which is not good I think)? What would you choose then and why?

For example, if someone needs a small app, use C regardless or some higher languages are good for that (in your opinion)?
