- 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.
This reverts commit e9cbb0b223, reversing
changes made to d6e3fc0567.
The merge just copied the obsolete FxFloatCast from master without any conflict so it all had to be removed again.
- Member variables are now declared all in one place: InitThingdef(). They
are not partially defined in thingdef_expression.cpp and further refined
in actor.txt.
- This left ParseNativeVariable() parsing only functions, so it has been
renamed to ParseNativeFunction().
- Note that their declarations in InitThingdef() are expected to be
temporary.
- This is RandomPick but for floats. Considering what RandomPick
translates into in the scripting branch, I hope I don't regret not using
type inference on RandomPick instead of creating a new keyword.
- So now you can do something like this for an action:
{
if (health > 1000)
{
A_Scream;
}
else
{
A_XScream;
}
}
Yes, the braces are required. Because I see too many instances where
somebody writes an if statement in ACS and doesn't understand why it
doesn't work right because they forgot braces.
- Fixed: Not actually putting an action between { and } would crash.
