E2 User Defined Functions

[somone77]

No, you give the inputs to the virtualized program via passing a table to the exec function, and get outputs by calling Code:getOutputs(). Inputs and outputs in virtualized code are defined by the @inputs, ect syntax in the code string.

EDIT: Example static code:

String = "@inputs Stuff:vector \n"+
"entity():applyForce(stuff)"

Code = virtCompile(String)
Args = table()
Args["Stuff",vector] = vec(0,0,1000)
Code:exec(Args)

Thank you very much, I find this a great way to protect dupes using this and the File functions or Http functions. I don't know how efficient this will be so I'll have to try it.

You, sir, are brilliant!
I've been waiting so long for this to happen, and bam, out of nowhere, you come and upload this!
Please, have my babies! They carry cookies!
+rep'ed!

Can a wire dev review this and check if its worthy of being added to the official SVN?

Can a wire dev review this and state whether or not it is official SVN worthy?

Well, this is still in development, so better not put it in Official SVN until I implement calling a variable.

HOLY SHIZNIT, IT WORKS!!!

if(first())
{
    runOnTick(1)
    findIncludePlayerProps(owner())
}
ColorEnts = function("Entities:array")
{
    EC = Entities:count()
    for(I=1,EC)
    {
        Entities[I,entity]:setColor(hsv2rgb(360/EC*I,1,1))
    }
}

if(findCanQuery())
{
    findByClass("*")
    Ents = array()
    Ents = findToArray()
    ColorEnts:call(Ents)
}

EDIT:also, dont forget to put functions in if(first()) I think it makes it more efficient, though im not sure.. Better safe than soz though

EDIT2:nvm, if first was fail :3

Yes, put it in if(first()), but don't forget to persist the function variables.

ahhk, didnt know i had to do that :3

It seems like a variable for the function doesn't seem like the best way to accomplish this. Perhaps just do something along the lines of

function("string name", parameters) {...}

and then call("string name")

[Colonel Thirty Two]

I could do that, or I could make it work like functions from other languages, which is what I did.

[mattwd0526]

Er...

C++:
returntype name(parameters) {...}

Lua:
function name(parameters) {...}

Neither of those start with the name of the function, and neither of them involve defining a variable (except C++ defining the type)
