So something like 'return ++user_x;' is now possible
Admittedly this needed quite a bit of refactoring mainly due to the fact that return types now have to be checked after resolving the function rather than before
break and continue were added but are not yet useable anywhere
This was made general enough so that loops and switch statements that accept breaks/continues can be done without much difficulty as well as goto statements with explicit labels if those are ever wanted
- fixed: DECORATE allowed a silent conversion from names to integers.
In old versions the name was converted to 0, since the scripting branch to the name index. Reverted to the old behavior but added a warning message.
- This reverts commit 06216d733e.
- I don't know what I was thinking. Since stateowner is always available
to the wrapper function, and this code is only generated for the wrapper
function, it's a nonissue. The state is already located before calling
any function that uses it.
- This reverts commit 39df62b20e.
- Anything that needs to lookup a state also needs stateowner. See
FxMultiNameState::Emit(). I will need to be more selective when
de-actionifying functions.
- An actor function really only needs to be an action function if:
1. It can be called with no parameters specified, either because it takes
none or because all its parameters are optional. This lets SetState()
call it directly without creating a wrapper function for it.
2. It wants access to the callingstate or stateowner parameters. Most
functions don't care about them, so passing them is superfluous.
- DECORATE now has atan2(y,x) and VectorAngle(x,y) functions. They are
identical except for the order of their parameters. The returned angle
is in degrees (not radians).
- Split specific parsing for each intrinsic out of ParseExpression0 and
into their own functions.
- Instead of reserving keywords for intrinsics, identify them by name
within TK_Identifier's handling.
- This is so that you can call an A_Jump-type function from inside an if
statement and do something other than jump if the jump condition was
met. e.g.
{
if (A_Jump(128, "Foo"))
{
A_Log("The function would have jumped");
}
else
{
A_Log("The function would not have jumped");
}
}
- The A_Jump family of action functions now return the state to jump
to (NULL if no jump is to be taken) instead of jumping directly.
It is the caller's responsibility to handle the jump. This will
make it possible to use their results in if statements and
do something other than jump.
- DECORATE return statements can now return the result of a function
(but not any random expression--it must be a function call). To
make a jump happen from inside a multi-action block, you must
return the value of an A_Jump function. e.g.:
{ return A_Jump(128, "SomeState"); }
- The VMFunction class now contains its prototype instead of storing
it at a higher level in PFunction. This is so that
FState::CallAction can easily tell if a function returns a state.
- Removed the FxTailable class because with explicit return
statements, it's not useful anymore.
If done as before, forward-declared classes cannot be found, and the immediate resolving is only needed for constant expressions, so explicitly enabling it in the 4 places where it is needed ensures that those unresolvable expressions remain intact until the final processing pass righr before the code generator is started.
