[vJass] Text-Macros and method operators

10-08-2009, 09:14 AM

Hey!

How can I have this?

JASS:


        //! textmacro TT_getVal takes name, type
        method operator $name$ takes nothing returns $type$
            return .$name$
        endmethod
        //! endtextmacro
        
        //! textmacro TT_setValNoUpd takes name, type
        method operator $name$= takes $type$ val returns nothing
            set .$name$ = val
        endmethod
        //! endtextmacro
        
        //! textmacro TT_setVal takes name, type
        method operator $name$= takes $type$ val returns nothing
            set .$name$ = val
            call .upd$name$()
        endmethod
        //! endtextmacro
        
        //! textmacro TT_noUpdate takes name, type
            //! runtextmacro TT_getVal(name, type)
            //! runtextmacro TT_setValNoUpd(name, type)
        //! endtextmacro
        
        //! textmacro TT_withUpdate takes name, type
            //! runtextmacro TT_getVal(name, type)
            //! runtextmacro TT_setVal(name, type)
        //! endtextmacro
        
        //! runtextmacro TT_withUpdate("Age","real")
        //! runtextmacro TT_withUpdate("Color","ARGB")
        //! runtextmacro TT_withUpdate("Fadepoint","real")
        //! runtextmacro TT_withUpdate("Fading","boolean")
        //! runtextmacro TT_withUpdate("Lifespan","real")
        //! runtextmacro TT_withUpdate("Permanent","boolean")
        //! runtextmacro TT_withUpdate("Suspended","boolean")
        //! runtextmacro TT_withUpdate("Visiblity","boolean")
        
        //! runtextmacro TT_noUpdate("Fades","boolean")
        //! runtextmacro TT_noUpdate("FadeColor","ARGB")
        //! runtextmacro TT_noUpdate("FadeCond","iFade")
        //! runtextmacro TT_noUpdate("FadeState","real")
        //! runtextmacro TT_noUpdate("FadeStrengh","real")
        //! runtextmacro TT_noUpdate("FadeType","string")
        //! runtextmacro TT_noUpdate("Handle","texttag")
        //! runtextmacro TT_noUpdate("ShowCond","iShow")
        //! runtextmacro TT_noUpdate("ShowForce","force")

Vexorian	you mean nested text macros? wait till I add them. Though I think you could do something funny combining textmacros and modules, explain what exactly is what you want to do?

Ok, because thats not supported, I have something like this:

JASS:

    //==-=-=-=-=-=-=-
    //: Textmacros
    //==-=-=-=-=-=-=-
    //! textmacro varOp takes name, type, method
    method operator $name$ takes nothing returns $type$
        return .$name$
    endmethod
    
    method operator $name$= takes $type$ val returns nothing
        set .$name$ = val
        $method$
    endmethod
    //! endtextmacro
    //==-=-=-=-=-=-=-

which is used here:

JASS:

        //==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
        //: Update Methods.
        //==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
        private method updAge takes nothing returns nothing
            call SetTextTagAge(.Handle, .Age)    
        endmethod
        
        private method updColor takes nothing returns nothing
            call SetTextTagColor(.Handle, .Color.red, .Color.green, .Color.blue, .Color.alpha) 
        endmethod
        
        private method updFadepoint takes nothing returns nothing
            call SetTextTagFadepoint(.Handle, .Fadepoint)
        endmethod
        
        private method updLifespan takes nothing returns nothing
            call SetTextTagLifespan(.Handle, .Lifespan)    
        endmethod
        
        private method updPermanent takes nothing returns nothing
            call SetTextTagPermanent(.Handle, .Permanent)   
        endmethod
        
        private method updPos takes nothing returns nothing
            call SetTextTagPos(.Handle, .PosX, .PosY, .PosZ)  
        endmethod
        
        private method updSuspended takes nothing returns nothing
            call SetTextTagSuspended(.Handle, .Suspended) 
        endmethod
        
        private method updText takes nothing returns nothing
            call SetTextTagText(.Handle, .Text, .Size)
        endmethod
        
        private method updVelocity takes nothing returns nothing
            call SetTextTagVelocity(.Handle, .VelX, .VelY)  
        endmethod
        
        private method updVisibility takes nothing returns nothing
            call SetTextTagVisibility(.Handle, .Visibility)
        endmethod

        //==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
        //: Member setting / getting
        //==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
        //: Variables that should update the texttag

        //! runtextmacro varOp("Age",       "real",     "call .updAge()")

        //! runtextmacro varOp("Visiblity", "boolean",  "call .updVisiblity()")
        
        //==--------------------------------------------
        //: Variables that shouldn't update the texttag
        //==--------------------------------------------
        //! runtextmacro varOp("Fades",         "boolean",  "")
        //! runtextmacro varOp("FadeColor",     "ARGB",     "")
        //! runtextmacro varOp("FadeCond",      "iFade",    "")
        //! runtextmacro varOp("FadeState",     "real",     "")
        //! runtextmacro varOp("FadeStrengh",   "real",     "")
        //! runtextmacro varOp("FadeType",      "string",   "")
        //! runtextmacro varOp("Fading",        "boolean",  "")
        //! runtextmacro varOp("Handle",        "texttag",  "")
        //! runtextmacro varOp("ShowCond",      "iShow",    "")
        //! runtextmacro varOp("ShowForce",     "force",    "")

What do you think of it?

Basicly I want to make method operators which update members and some of them should also run methods on update, but not all.

Edit: To get you a better view of what I am meaning, I added the updating methods.
