Vexorian	I say, let people vote on what they think should be my next tutorial about, starting now. Well, I could make a tutorial of plenty of things even of things I don't really know so well, but it would be better to limit it to vJass stuff. k?

Captain Griffen	Delegation. Cuz you know no one will use it even if you make a tutorial. 'cept grim.

TotallyAwesome	Hmm, one of risks of having this thread open are "omg plz lrn me 2 jass kk" posts. I guess it's helpful though.

Damn!!! ok.... well I think a good tutorial (or reference guide) could be about how all this vJASS gets converted when they're compiled. I've noticed there's too much ignorance in that part and it will help people to apply the vJASS features properly, even to abuse them properly.

delegation is awesome, and there no need to be tutorial for it. Go read the manual, vex actually made a better delegation than delegation in java/C#/C++ etc Because his compiler is uber smart :P

But there is something i wanna ask about:
-Does delegation also allow delegate of variables? It would be awesome if it can access variables tat doesnt exist for the current struct but exist in the delegated structs in it.

Vexorian	what variables?

member variables of the struct. Delegation works on method, i wonder if it works on member vars too...

ex:

JASS:

struct A
    integer G
endstruct

struct B
    delegate A deleg
    static method create takes nothing returns B
        local B b = B.allocate()
        set B.deleg = A.create()
    endmethod
endstruct

//...

local B b = B.create()
set b.G = 2 //here it will actually be: set b.deleg.G = 2

grim001	Yes, it works like that.

tat is awesome, awesome, allow making systems with plugins, extensions. :D

then i wonder if it allow this...

JASS:

struct K
    integer G
endstruct

struct A
    delegate K delegK
    static method create takes nothing returns A
        local A a = A.allocate()
        set a.deleg = K.create()
    endmethod
endstruct

struct B
    delegate A delegA
    static method create takes nothing returns B
        local B b = B.allocate()
        set b.deleg = A.create()
    endmethod
endstruct

//...

local B b = B.create()
set b.G = 2 //here it will actually be: set b.delegA.delegK.G = 2

Pyrogasm	It might be useful to, you know, upload the JASSHelper manual as a tutorial here.

10-15-2008, 12:33 PM	#14
Vexorian	only that it isn't a tutorial.

Pyrogasm	I think it sort-of is. A reference guide is close enough, and it's nice for it to be online so it can be linked to.
